The last point in my previous post is actually quite important. When I go to bilingual sites (update: where english is the primary language), I sometimes worry that if I select the French version, it will be incomplete, that newer stuff will not be present as it could be only presented in the English version. But if the French version was consistently indicating that untranslated items are available in another language, I would feel comfortable selecting French knowing I will not miss anything.

This would have to be consistent, and should even be part of a site's mission statement. Something like: This site is offered in French and English. We try our best to translate all contents of this site. When a translation is not yet available in the currently selected language, a link to the untranslated document will still be offered so that you do not miss anything from whatever language you select. A statement better worded, and, of course, available in every language supported by the site.
