That's pretty much how I understood it to be. I was kind of getting a little worried I might have been wrong. I have seen some applications that seem to change when the desktop locale settings are changed. So I'm assuming there is a mechanism there that your application can use to find out about locale changes, it's just not propogated into the application at all. So my applications that continue to cache locale bits and pieces will continue to work, libraries shouldn't change locale info ever unless they're guaranteed to be initialised first, and the rest of the world can change locales as much as it wants, the application won't care until it's next started. I'm hoping that about sums it up, and I haven't misread anything.
