Magnus,

Echoing Naoto's comments I don't agree that we should be supporting 
this. In the original email a workaround was mentioned using an 
environment variable - if that is the case then I don't think we need to 
do anything here. Even if not, who knows how many other languages we 
might have to support in this way.
