But in this way if you are looking for the policy manual (e.g.) you have
to look first into /usr/doc/fi or /usr/doc/fi/dpkg and then, if you
don't find it, into /usr/doc/dpkg.
Alternatively you have to build a forest of symlinks to let each
original doc appear under /usr/doc/fi when the document is not yet been
translated.

I suggest
/usr/doc/dpkg/fi/säännöt.html or /usr/doc/dpkg/lang-fi/säännöt.html
and
/usr/doc/dpkg/fi/.dwww-index or /usr/doc/dpkg/lang-fi/.dwww-index
to make also clearer to which language belongs each translation.
Anyway, does rfc1808 and/or rfc1738 allow 8 bit chars in urls?
