Personally I do not user routes much and I like to do

if request.vars.force_language: session.force_language
if session.force_language: T.force(force_language)

and have button in the 'index' page that reload the index page in
various languages

<a href="{{=URL(r=request,vars=dict(force_language='fr-
fr'))}}">French</a>

Because of the session var, web2py will remember my preferred
language.
