alt= text for language chart makes pages very wide

Confirmed here on Firefox with image loading turned off.

The cell is styled as "white-space: nowrap;", could it not be so?

The problem with that is that the bar is actually formed from a number of small images, and if we allow wrapping there, it will end up wrapping the images when they are displayed.

One workaround would be to remove the alt="" attributes and then add an additional, invisible image to each cell that was not no-wrapped and that had a single alt="" attribute containing the full comment.

If we do fix that we should try to also fix the fact that we have two sortkey spans in the status cell -- just look at the HTML generated:

<td span style="white-space: nowrap">

          <span class="sortkey">100.0</span>

          <span style="white-space: nowrap"><span class="sortkey">000.00</span>

<img src="/@@/green-bar.png"
[...]

Matsubara also has a workaround landed that uses % instead of "percent". But I guess the proper fix lies in my suggestions above.
