Multilingual links with Pathologic

I've spent the last three days trying to find a robust path naming/linking scheme for my multilingual sites. The best results so far have been with Pathologic, but I feel that I still have a very long way to go...

I am working with language-symmetric paths like 'en/page' and 'de/page'.

For my links, I would like to use relative paths without language information, like href="otherpage".

From there, I would need that the language prefix get's attached magically:

• link to 'otherpage' from 'en/page' gives 'en/otherpage'.
• link to 'otherpage' from 'de/page' gives 'de/otherpage'.

Is such a thing possible? This would save me so much pain! (I really think that the authors should not have to translate every single path from 'en/somepath' to 'de/somepath', 'es/somepath', etc... This is just a huge source of errors.)

I am actually using the following modules:

• Path (Core)
• Locale (Core)
• Content translation (Core)
• Internationalization (Multilanguage)

'Public' file transfer, and 'Path prefix with language fallback' Language negotiation.
