The problem is that localized web sites often have a mixture of $base 
and $enbase path, so they should maintain their own navigation.xml in 
any case...setting a default of $base is not a solution, since a new 
link may point to a non-existant localized page (and having broken links 
in home page is not good).

We (italian) directly link the engligh news for this reason (no 
translation of news), so the important thing is that this will continue 
to work.
