Proposal: New optional parameter ?langs=
Your proposal is good as it has been described, but I don’t understand why to work with more than one language simultaneously.

It would make it take fewer requests to pull e.g. /v2/items into a local database.
It’s not a bad idea but it would require more refactoring than I have spare time for, I think.

I put the API-data (i.e. items) in a local database that serves the webrequests of local users (that could use the system in more than language), so I have to store the several languages in the database.
Storing the data in a local database (and regularly check the API for updates/changes) gives additional information, i.e. I have “first seen” and “last changed” database-timestamp fields for items and other API-data.

OK, I understand that. As long as the API-server has enough free ressources, this optimization is only kind of “nice to have” from my point of view.

Another advantage to serve the requests of web-users from a local database is: The website still works even when the API is down.
