That's the exact same approach used by MythTV and MythVideo, so it looks 
much better.  Even in MythTV/MythVideo, there's a comment mentioning 
that there may be "anomalies" if a user has titles in multiple 
languages, so there's not much that can be done for that.

Thanks for such a quick fix.  Now, when Chris gets to that patch, it may 
have a better chance of being accepted.  :)
