(sorry for my poor English)
I think, this feature would be good for correct Googlebot and other bots scanning, because they doesn't have cookies enabled.
Is it possible to add a feature that allows user to force locale switching from front page when the option "Detect through browser's language" is enabled AND the cookies are disabled? For example: I have English and German versions of main page. I enter the site as anonymous with cookies disabled, the Localizer module automatically redirects me to the localized english version of main page using the browser settings. But I can not change the language of main page to German by using standard Localizer block hyperlinks, because after I click the German link, the Localizer module redirects me to the English main page again and again. So does the Googlebot - he "thought" he get to the other page, but the content is similiar as the main page.
This feature may be added by adding a new request string parameter, for example, if the Localizer block is being built at main page, he adds a "&force=1" parameter to the URI. And next time, if the link is "http://mysite.com/switchuilocale/ru?destination=ru%2Fmain.htm&force=1", then when Localizer module tries to redirect, he doesn't do it.
Thanks, Greg.

Could you try that, please ?
