I also would like to say I like Magnus proposal to highlight the browser preference language in some way.
Instead of highlighting one language, one can waste a bit of screen real estate duplicating information: what about a prominently displayed box with something like this:
"Wikipedia in your language: Portugu�s"
if I have pt: as my browser language? (maybe translating also the "in your language", if a translation is available).
After this box, the usual wikipedia listing of languages in reverse article count order, like www.wikipedia.org right now.
In this way, if one has a language preference he can find it quickly, without searching in 100s of languages. If you speak Spanish and you instead want to edit the Kurdish wikipedia, search for Kurd� in the big list.
