1. In components list on the left: Template -> Templates
2. I am not sure about fields titles. You are user friendly here but in long
run it can cause problems IMO. XMP standards have several fields about
authorship and even when some names aren't very intuitive it may be friendlier
to use something which can be googled in standards than use more general terms
which can lead to misunderstandings later. So: 
"Author Names" -> "Creator", 
"Authors position" -> "Creator's Jobtitle", 
"Credit" -> "Credit Line", 
"Copyright" -> "Copyright Notice",
"Right Usage Terms" -> "Rights Usage Terms" (just typo)

Official names taken from
IPTC Standard, Photo Metadata 2008, IPTC Core, Specification Version 1.1

http://www.iptc.org/std/photometadata/2008/specification/IPTC-PhotoMetadata-2008_2.pdf

I know some of them are longer and worse fit in right panel for example but I
think clarity should beat convenience here.

3. Drop-down menus should be of equal width
