currently the breadcrumbs reflect Pootle's structure, not the User's
path. maybe we can switch to a system that reflects the steps users
took (if we can avoid making it as buggy as docuwiki's breadcrumbs).

another option would be to add a drop down list next to the language
link to make it easy to jump to another language for the same project.
(we can do the same for projects, subdirs and files too)

I understand, I'm constantly annoyed by it too, but the assumption that
Language is the primary object goes deeper than just navigation. it is
in permissions and the url structure too.

I still think organizing translation workflow on the basis of language
teams makes more sense for most users though.
