Robert and I just had a long discussion and created
http://pad.ubuntu.com/locale-handling to explain the concepts and
design.

Unfortunately it is not trivial to only disable the "set $LANG from
accountsservice" part, but keeping the "set $LANG from .dmrc" part
(which we need for backwards compat and derivatives). But anyway, the
current set_language() method is just wrong, and we'll disable it for
oneiric final to fix this bug. We will then need to SRU a slightly more
intrusive patch to revive reading ~/.dmrc for backwards compatibility.
