* Someone checks out which links point to English content.

If the links have this attribute added:

 <a href="http://example.com/"; 
    hreflang="en"
Foo</a>

Then it might make the task of automating something easier.

* [Your idea here]

You could also add this CSS to the head (only works in Mozilla but
this is good enough for me :-) 

<style type="text/css">
  a[hreflang="en"]:after {
    padding-left: 0.2em;
    padding-right: 0.2em;
    color: white;
    background: red;
    font-weight: bold;
    font-size: smaller;
    content: "[English Link]";
  }
</style>

And after each link to an english language site you get a bit of
text saying [English Link].

I might have a go at doing this myself...

In fact if all internal links _don't_ start with http: then this
following CSS would save having to code in all those images of the
globe for remote links (URI of image file would need changing):

  a[href^="http://"]:after {
    padding-left: 0.2em;
    content: url("/css/remote.png");
  }

  a[href^="https://"]:after {
    padding-left: 0.2em;
    content: url("/css/remote.png");
  }

  a[href^=""]:before {
    padding-right: 0.2em;
    content: url("/css/mailto.gif")
  }

You can see the above in action on my home page (in Mozilla of
course), in fact I was inspired to do it from seeing it on the
Oekonux site:
