Does anyone have a resolution / workaround for the following scenario?

Specifically:


Has anyone ever found a satisfying solution for this?

Last week I came across a similar problem, but instead of upgrading from 
Windows 7 to Windows 10 I'm trying to upgrade from Windows 10 Build 10240 to 
Windows 10 Build 10586.
All of our company's Windows 10 clients are installed with en-US as base 
language and are afterwards updated with an appropriate language pack according 
to the subsidiary's preference.

When upgrading to a newer build we need to use an en-US installation image as 
the original installation was done that way, but without switching the language 
back to en-US prior to installation the upgrade process seems to be unable to 
retain any settings and just keeps the files.
This even happens when the currently used language pack is available in the new 
installation image.
For bare metal and refreshes we're using the en-US media and adding the en-GB 
language pack which allows us to set the English (Australia) language as the 
default display language using Unattend.xml with no problems at all.

With an in-place upgrade were seeing the default display language revert to 
English (United States) for new user accounts that log in (existing accounts 
that are migrated are not affected). The language pack is present following the 
in-place upgrade however where not able to set the Display Language, Input 
Language, Format or Location.

I'm assuming this is the case because at no point is an unattend.xml file 
processed during an in-place upgrade and as far as I can tell there is no way 
to change these values with an online image using DISM...?
