Comment (by KapiX):
I don't agree that flags are there just because they're colorful. They
make it easier to grep the list for the language you are looking for
(which works at least for the "big" languages, national pride issues
aside). Therefore I don't think completely removing that indicator is a
good idea. However, I think the flags can be successfully replaced by two
/three-letter ISO codes (uppercased), even if some of them would appear
multiple times (for example three "EN"s for US, GB and Canada variants).
It's still easier to find the language you're looking for, while solving
the issue of misrepresentation/misattribution.
