Yeah I forgot about that. So the icon will be the flag or something like 
that.

A very good one. It is probably the most used one.

Yeah this is needed because it should be possible to add extra child 
record which are only for one specific language. So all records need to 
be still sortable.

Never automatic! If somebody wants this, mode "keep" would be the right way.
So the best thing is the "synchronize icon" and also as in the page view 
  the link "copy x records to another language" should get shown again.

This is kind of a missing feature in the Core: There should be a warning 
message if there is any translated record which belongs to the parent 
record you want to delete.  If it is possible I would like this warning 
at least in IRRE but if not: Delete the localized child and keep of 
course the records which are just for this language.

I don't like that idea because it is nowhere else in TYPO3.
