Additionally why do we always present English as
default to unregistered
users on Commons? Why don't we observe the accept-language HTTP header?
That would be some easy steps to make Commons much more accessible to
non-English people.
That would severely break the Squid cache. In non-technical terms: if
we enable this and people actually use it, the site goes down.
I understand this makes caching more difficult, but did anyone ever do
measurements? Without decent metrics this is just wild guessing.
Things to measure for example:
* Total text requests for all sites
* Total text requests for just Commons
* Total misses for all sites
* Total misses for just Commons
I'm sure someone can dig up these metrics. Worst case all text requests
for Commons go to the backend directly, right?
