Event Timeline

For automatic detection not to get in the way, I'd recommend to have a specific "Detect language" option as the first in the drop-down that turns into "Detect language (English)" if English is detected. Users setting explicitly their language to a specific one will not get their choice changed when editing the messages to make a small correction, which can be frustrating.
