One characteristic of this solution is that a page might be served in
one of two language versions - but with the same URL.
What's the implication of this in terms of search engines?
Chances are that the, say, Google crawler, always sees (and hence,
indexes) the same language version. Your site could end up existing (in
terms of Google) only in Dutch, but not in English.
Or what if the crawler, for some reason, sometimes gets to see the NL,
sometimes the EN version? He gets the impression of an extremely
volatile site, which might be counter productive to building up a good
rank in the long run.
My speculations, I admit.
