Not at all: your message clears things up for me, *I* have misunderstood
the design of the Translation header.
I believed that, the way it was intended to work was for pages using it
to always copy the version from the page template, at all times; I
didn't appreciate that it was a one-time copy from DefaultTemplate to
the page in question, and then a live-transclusion from that page to its
translations. I get it now!
Now I understand the mechanism better, my proposal is simpler: I'd like
to extend the header in DefaultTemplate so that it includes a Discussion
page link as well. Similar to how it looks on e.g.
<https://wiki.debian.org/DebianWiki>. That means wrapping the existing
translation code in a table, with the translations in a left-hand cell
and the Discussion link in the right.
Any objections?
Best wishes,
