Now it is on the web page. This feature is called "fuzzy" translation
in commercial translation workbenches (that cost a lot of money), and
Nick has hands-on experience with these apps. From the description it
is not so clear, indeed, a screenshot would be helpful.

If Nick is able to complete this project as stated, Kaider will be a
killer app, even more than KBabel was at its time. I wish developers
and translators will start testing it and giving feedback to it ASAP.
