That would be cumbersome and probably wouldn't help to relieve the issue caused
by this bug anyway. File it as a separate bug if you feel strongly about it.

The language-section-specific "recent changes" you describe seem quite hard to
implement "correctly", but should be possible with a gadget filtering recent
changes on edit summaries.

The length of time that recent changes entries are kept is configurable
per-wiki (for example translatewiki.net has it set to 5 years IIRC), and
technically it's even possible to rebuild entries which expired and have been
removed if the time limit is raised (but I'm not sure if that would actually
work on large wikis). File a bug under "Wikimedia -> Site requests" if you want
this changed for your wiki.
