I kinda like the idea of a language switcher button in the search ui, along with a shortlist of most-frequently-accessed languages. I think we could make it fairly nonobtrusive for people who don't use it while making it super easy to activate for those for whom its a major feature. -- brion On No

How about having the search box placeholder text specify the lang and when the search box is empty, since there's no need for a clear button, have instead a small lang switcher button? > On Nov 18, 2014, at 4:03 AM, Amir E. Aharoni > wrote: > > Hi, > > I am raising this issue every once in
