When searching for something new to read, "English" is often obviously more or less an useless option since officially licensed manga aren't being hosted here. However, chances are that there are still official English releases available to buy. As far as I can tell, there is no way to search for manga with official English releases. However, the information exists since it's listed on the individual series' pages.
So I would suggest adding an "English (Official)" or "English (Licensed)" language option, so that the "English" search option doesn't become completely useless at some point. Ideally, searching for "English" and "English (Official)" would provide one with both scanlations and officially licensed works.
As it is right now, my only bet is either just looking at any listed untranslated manga hoping that it might have an official version or just enabling all of the languages hoping that any officially licensed manga will have at least one chapter in any foreign language available.
Oh, and since the post seems like a lot of rambling, here's a concrete example.
I'm looking for "Digimon" manga that were translated into English. I get a bunch of results.
Now I exclude the English language and look for other manga. I stumble upon "DIGIMON SEEKERS: Sansaro no Majo" which has only two chapters in French. It didn't show up when i was looking for English chapters. But as the page shows, there is an official English version. It would be nice if this would somehow show up while looking for manga with English chapters.
