I'm not sure if I understand. You have set the locale "for the current
document only". You discover that the setting was indeed applied to and
stored with the document. You also discovered that no other document was
influenced by this setting if you select "for the current document
only". That sounds like "works as designed".

Or do you observe that the language setting is not persistent even if
you make it "for all documents"? That would be a bug.

If no locale is set on OOo's first start AFAIK that it is taken from and
set to the value of the operating system. But it may be more complicated.

The "document language" indeed is taken from the default paragraph style
(that shouldn't be mixed up with the paragraph style named "Default")
that is stored along with every document. The setting "for all
documents" is taken from the configuration.
