I'm on this. Still in "thinking stage", but I think I'll produce
something this weekend (okay, maybe next week).

I think so. Maybe some text like "There's no such page in your
language, create one!" could be printed.

Mediawiki uses language:article_name_in_that_language syntax. For
example, take a look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pencil&action=edit bottom. I
think that's pretty cool idea, but what if translator forgets about
linking to his newly translated article?
Maybe we could use "base language" names, like en/pencil.txt,
de/pencil.txt and so on. Only title (header) would change. I think
that's better than a big relation database...
