Add a hint in admin for multi-lingual instances
Is your feature request related to a problem? A clear and concise description of what the problem is.
As an admin working on a multilingual instance which default language isn't my browsers language I can get quite frustrating because I feel I have to fill in all the fields in all languages to be able to work on a process. Indeed I get an error if I try to save the form. In reality it's not the case, I just have to fill in all the field in the default language, this way I can save.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice to have hint in the admin (in the altert message or just a help text I can hide) that tells me that I can only fill the fields in the default language to save the form.
Something like ""to fill form with not all language, you need to fill the default language"

Another alternative: allow to save an item without all translations (only require the one of the default language) and in the front-end fallback to the default language if a given translation is not available.
(well, now that I think of it, this probably should be a new and different proposal :D)
Hey, that's actually how it works now.
The problem is that you use the same language on the FO and in BO. So if your language is not the default you're exposed to the issue I mentioned in the proposal.
So I agree by default one should always visit the BO in the default language
