Also, I really miss the ability to close and open folders hierarchically.

I bet the crappy programmers didn't think of the fact that passwords sometimes consist of more than the characters a-z and 0-9.

You have to check all files in the backup archive individually(!) to make sure they are really copied. Many files and folders are ignored entirely when specified using "dot files", for example "Application".
It is far to easy to wind up with multiple backup files. For example, the "System Preferences" move many files that will also get moved if you backup your Library folder. Redundancy will always lead to trouble, sooner or later.
A backup utility should be reliable. If it's not, then it isn't a backup program but just an enormous waste of time.
Lexikon Widget

Suggestions for improvement:
1) On the flip-side of the widget, only the actual checkboxes are active. The typical Mac behavior allows also the labels to be clicked.
2) You have to press return after each search term is entered. It should be enough to just exit the search-term field (e.g. tabbing or selecting the popup).
3) Text in the hitlist cannot be selected, and therefore not copied. The I-beam cursor is there, but it doesn't select anything. Instead it moves the window, which is really awkward and non-Mac:ish.
4) The feature list could be expanded to also include a Swedish-Swedish and English-English choice in the popup. This could be used to display word-class information for the search term in the original language, and possibly also supply synonyms.
5) There are a couple of text parts that include mal-formated characters. Actually, the very first search term I tried was the word "perform". The result contained a whole bunch of "%%" sequences without any obvious meaning.
6) Since this widget accesses a web server to find the words in the dictionary, it would have been really nice to get some feedback when it is buzy waiting for server response. A common spinning beach-ball or sun cursor would be enough.
7) Every hitlist term is followed by a numbered list of definitions. It is totally unnecessary to write the text "1. " for every single line which contains only a single entry. This is definately a minor detail, but when I browsed through the text it resulted oftenly in unnecessary scrolling up and down looking for a second entry which wasn't there.
Over-all however, a great little widget!

I believe you should take the complaints about language errors really seriously. This could sink your ship like a canon ball would, which I think would be too sad.
How much would it cost you to let all your texts pass through an English grammar check as compared to the loss of customers? Yes, of course, there's the national pride too. But you have to agree that it's quite nice to have a universal way of communicating between all nations in the world (or 'word' as you call it). I definately think so, and I'm a proud Swedish viking. You should be happy that language isn't Chinese.
