You were perfectly right! If I set up the shortcut in the way you have 
proposed, the menus are displayed uniformly in English!

Funny side note: I found in this particular case, that it is sufficient to set 
the LANG variable to ANY value in order to get the menus in English. Even if I 
set it to de, fr or ja, I get English menus throughout. I guess that there are 
simply no other language packs installed for Geany, and since the LANG variable 
is set, Geany doesn't bother GTK with doing helping in the translation.
