Considering that mobile relies on the API for a large percentage of it's UI and 
currently serves about half of our traffic, I'm pretty surprised this change 
was not discusses with the mobile team. I'm on a bus right now and haven't been 
able to test things thoroughly, but it looks like some parts of the mobile 
interface are no longer properly localized for logged in users, e.g. 
notifications. I'll look into this further when I get to the office.
