It seems the change was done in order to fix:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7778
possible solution which will enbale to toggle languages and keep the bug
fixed:
If we can disable switching into corrent language, we can use
LFUN_COMMAND_ALTERNATIVES. Somthing like
command-alternatives language hebrew; language english
Which will switch the the "other" language.
(if I understood correctly the manual, I assume one can check waht is the
current language and then "if (*lang == *cur_lang) {enable = false;
break;} " will do the work)
