Personally I think planets should be single language. Unless it's a lot
of administrative faff I don't see why not to have per-language planets.

An alternative would be to tag the posts from each constituent feed
appropriately such that .../planet/ was everything
and .../planet/{en,pt,es}/ etc were only the posts in the given
language. Again this depends on the power of the backend.
