Summary14726: LanguageSelector national language
Description

the language selector should always display languages in the appropriate national language?
then it should always be the same list, but it isn't.

eg

Deutsch, Englisch, Italiano instead of Deutsch, English, Italiano

in zh-Hans we can see English in chinese letters - Deutsch, Italiano are correct

I can reproduce this, the way languages are listed at the JS language switch drop down seems not to be consistent.

Unsure it must be only «national language» but must have national language.

Maybe adding language iso code too ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IETF_language_tag

French - Français
Spanich (Spain) - Español (España)
Spanich (Mexico) - Español (Mexico)
Chinese (Simplified) - 中文（简体）

I think listing both versions (string with local language + each language with its own translation) makes sense.

@bismark: To which language selector are you actually referring to? Screenshot would help, also.

This issue shows up when using the javaScript based language selector which directly changes the languages after having picked a lnaguage from the drop down. As you can see from the screenshot the language lists look different for the non-JS version (used "vanilla" theme for testing) and the JS based version tested with our template.
The non-JS version looks correct to me but at the JS based language list the languages are not listed using the native language.
