I think this will result in surprising behaviour.

1. Set languag inside lyx to "swedish" (why not?)
   - save and exit
2. run lyx with LANG=no_NO ./lyx
   - get a nice swedish lyx

I think that the ui language should not be settable from inside lyx.
Well, why is it so important to keep the almightiness of LANG?

I think we need a few more opinions before we take a decision.

In my opinion the setting in LyX's preferences should be taken and the LANG setting ignored. This implies that I think it is a nice feature be be able to set the language from inside LyX. This is also possible in many programs I use and avoids that users have to fiddle around with environment variables; for example about 90% of the Win users don't know what an environment variable is and they usually also don't know that they have to modify a batch file to set LyX's menu language.
