Note that {{int:}} isn't the only case where page content can end up depending
on the user's interface language, although it's probably the most visible one.
A number of parser error and warning messages, for example, are also embedded
in page content using the user's interface language.
I suspect the only practical resolution, if we want to retain the current
behavior of {{int:}}, would be to only update the link tables when the
interface language matches the content language. If the page is saved or
purged by a user with a different interface language, we'd have to reparse the
page in the background using the content language in order to correctly refresh
the links.
Yes, this would leave the possibility of having links visible in different
interface languages that are not recorded in the database, but that may be
acceptable: after all, there are plenty of other cases where links are not
recorded either. The biggest problem is that updates to templates that are
only used on "localized" versions of pages may not propagate fully -- but that
can be worked around either by manual purging or simply by not doing that in
the first place.
(Incidentally, {{int:}} suffers from a similar problem anyway: I don't believe
transcluding an interface message using {{int:}} creates a templatelinks entry,
so changes to the transcluded interface message won't propagate automatically.
In practice, we just live with that limitation.)
