Since my "other languages" box is using some more than 5 maximal screen heights, having it slightly separated does not disturb me. Not any more, at least. There are two things which are not directly related to variants but imho could be fixed in one go with them: - Entries are using up much too much valuable space. I wish to delete all whitespace, and use a more list orientated approach. At least as an option. - it is really frustrating that I cannot enter many labels which I know since Wikidata (for no apparent reason) does not allow labels to be added for a whole lot of languages, and that my babel list has to be incomplete because #babel does not offer many languages.
