I have now added a text "(expires ...)" with the exact expiration
timestamp besides every outstanding invitation (both in the NRO overview
and in the "Add/Remove administrators" popup for existing IdPs.

This will be part of the next release.

Only if you want distinct names in Japanese and other languages. If all
you want is Japanese then you can always use the language
"default/other" and type Kanji in there. We fully support UTF-8 and
there should be no issue at all in doing that.

In fact, I just tried setting an institution name to "エアバスA330
(Airbus A330) は、ヨーロッパの企業連合であるエアバス・インダストリー社
（後のエアバス社）が開発・製造している、ワイドボディの双発ジェット旅客機。"

And that worked just fine (Airbus A330 is Japanese Wikipedia's article
of the day :-) ).

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
