As I've commented on the ticket, this might not be the best point in time for fine-tuning the visual aspect of the translations. There has been discussion about using the MediaWiki Translate extension for better handling of translations and installation of this extension is scheduled for the next software upgrade: http://wiki.osm.org/Talk:Wiki_Translation#Translate_extension More generally, though, I feel slightly uncomfortable with your suggestions to free "valuable real estate" or even collapse the list by default. Most of our wiki content is not available in all languages, and realistically will never be. (Many pages are not even expected to be translated, such as proposals.) So switching between languages will inevitably happen quite often for every user who wants to neither miss out on a lot of wiki content nor go English only. Yes, it makes sense to think about a language link redesign. However, it should not be based on the premise that these aren't important, and for practical reasons I would prefer to wait until the technical foundations of the translation system are in place.
