I see. Good point. On the other hand, it means that the much larger audience
of people who do know the page-language have to suffer an ever increasing
line of unreadable words at the top. Maybe not a problem with some 10 W,
but at 30, 100, ...? 

(Apart from them being unreadable, they will also take up ever more
screen-space. Is there a future design for this?)
