The web server is doing content negotiation. It's the best, easier and more
portable way to have internationalized pages. If such feature (yours) has to
be added, the server should maintain either your session ID or a cookie in
your machine. None of the options is good for us.
I don't think that clicking on two aditional links were so hard. :-) In fact,
you set up your browser for Debian and many other sites doing content
negotiation (like Google). So be happy!
