1. Customise a translation and Save it.
2. Cancel the customisation
3. The input box is filled with a strange text:

What I expect instead: the default value is back in the input box

Confirmed, something is not working properly here.  
I cannot reproduce the error consistently but it happens  
This is the third attempt:

In the first two attempts, when I canceled the changes, I see an error message about the URL (not found or changed). I had to repeat the procedure so that the edit was properly canceled.
