I always considered \include for a language declaration a rather ugly
kludge. In particular since it warps the interpretation for all further
input/include files.
I'd rather have something like
\notelanguage "english" { ... }
which switches the parser to english language while parsing the given
expression (and loads internally some .ily file once with the required
information if necessary, retaining it for further switches).
