I discussed it with upstream already. Fedora had the same patch, but
they dropped it. Michael Schwendt wrote: "After discussing this on the
list, we've pulled it as it would differ from upstream defaults. And a
setup dialog is plausible actually. It's not a big hurdle."

Often enough. :) My default language is German, but for debugging I
often set LANG=C. Therefore I want an option for it in Preferences ->
Interface -> Language. This would make audacity behave like all other
applications.
