1. If you aren't seeing the phrases, do as the first post says and save any phrase.
2. Regarding the invalid file, make sure you are using the plugin manager and not the product manager to install it. This is not yet a product.
3. Rebuilding the bitfields behaves as described. Blame Jelsoft for that loopy behavior and the fact that it is necessary at all

In the product release, it won't be necessary.
