I'd love to have this in the MediaWiki core, we were discussing just a few days ago how much a feature like this would help Commons. Adding a javascript variable describing the user's currently selected language is on my to do list, for this exact application.
I think we could put a loader stub in wikibits.js and have the bulk of the feature in a separate file, how does that sound?
Sounds great. Does that mean I'd get SVN access (even if it's just for that extension folder) to maintain it?

Given our current attitude, it seems you'd get Subversion access if you offered to blow your nose in the name of MediaWiki.
We don't typically do per-folder permissions; we just trust people not to fuck up code they don't understand or touch stuff they're not supposed to.
However, I'd vouch for your sanity and ability to keep your sticky fingers to yourself, and I want to see some proof of concept code for this.
