Localization - links fail to direct to appropriate language

Issue Summary

I have a bilingual site in English and French and several pages translated into both languages. I've used Localizer and have created translation pages for these. I may just be unfamiliar with how this is supposed to work and may be assuming that is does more than it actually is supposed to. What I am expecting is that when there is a link on the English version that it will go to the English page. What I am getting is a separate node for each translation (so for instance the 'Projects' page is node/2 in English and node/68 in French). If there is a link on this page to go to 'Project A' (which has English node/41, French node/111), I have to ensure that all links on all English pages ONLY point to English pages and all links on French pages ONLY point to French pages. I expected the Localizer to notice that the link pointed to a French version and that the User had specified English and would then swap to the English link. At this point, the Localizer seems to only function as a handy way to store the two pages with easy access and doesn't really support maintaining the language through links except in the Menu. I'm hoping that I'm doing something wrong and you'll point me in the right direction.
