Hi,

Scenario:

  1. node1 of content type A in language de (default language en)
  2. I want to create a node2 of type B with a required node-reference to nodes of type A
  3. I select de as the language of node2 in the node creation form

Actual behavior:

The node_reference widget shows an empty list of nodes to select from. Since I'm not allowed to save the node (ie. change the nodes language) there is no way to create a node.

Expected behavior:

As soon as I select the language the node_reference widget should reload the available nodes this time by the selected language (+undefined language).

Proposed solution:

Explicitly filter the available nodes by language instead of relying on i18n_select to do that.

This would also at least partially fix http://drupal.org/node/1099956 .

This is rather hard to implement as neither the option lists nor the views are designed to have access to the node or form object.

In the meanwhile I use this patch to solve my problem. It disables filtering by i18n_select and displays a language indicator behind the node title.
