Language detection would be nice, i.e. detect what language their 
browser is set for and display the appropriate interface (ala Google). 
Alternately, provide separate versions of the website that you can 
manually switch between (and possibly automatic translation tools for 
news articles). I have a bit of experience with this if anyone's 
interested in working on it and needs some help. Unfortunately, my 
schedule doesn't leave me much hope of working on this by myself (which 
is why Acorn is such a good idea, IMO).
