Basic support for languages #165

Best as I can tell, the current status is:

Then there's the question of the GUI.

What Toot! does for writing statuses is multifold:

  • it can set the language to whatever the keyboard layout is
  • it can (my preference) detect the language based on what you've typed
  • you can explicitly set the language

And then for reading them, I guess it detects if the language doesn't match your system language, and then offers to translate.

So, in terms of GUI, we want some of these:

  • (Definitely) support for setting and/or detecting the language when writing a post (I'm not sure detection is trivial enough to be worth it)
  • (Maybe) support for displaying the language for existing posts. I haven't seen this in most clients, I don't think.
  • (Maybe) offering translation.
