Shaouldn't that happen automatically though the POSIX i18n stuff?
Hypothetical platforms that dont support POSIX could fake it up easily,
its just an environment variable.


Some existing plug-in hosts have language a setting, so it should be up to the host.

(As an English-speaker working in Germany, the last thing I want is software to assume it knows what language I want to use, or that I want it to use the same language the OS is currently set to).
