Really, simply  to add "mul" to the list of included languages should be
sufficient (in the double significance of "no specified language - multiple
languages"). The "old" prefix would be perhaps better, since it's already
in use into Iwpage transclusion. English could be linked to "mul" as
default language for translation issues of interface. Is this so terribly
difficult? Is there really a hard  techno issue, or the whole matter is
mainly a matter of "policy"? The latter case would be very disturbing.
