Sounds like a good idea. The code that does this should be considered "malleable," though, and subject to the same refactoring as the rest of the UserPrefs code, when that happens. :)

Will be a valuable addition for several of my projects, whose clients
are likely to be working on community- or public-access computers in
multiple languages.

(on request - more ideas for user prefs ;-))
Currently JSPWiki localises its pages according to the locale of the
user's browsers.
However, it may not always be convenient to change the locale of the
browser. (eg. cybercafe)
So, I propose to add a Language drop-down to the User Preferences,
allowing you to choose a language from one of the JSPWiki installed
languages.
By default, the user's locale would be choosen.
The preference of another language is stored in the user-pref cookie,
clearing the cookie get's you back to the browser's locale.
Plse vote.
