I'm no expert, but seems like the options are: 1) initialize it every request, either from browser capability negotiations (like $ENV{HTTP_ACCEPT}) or with some quick test run early in the request process; 2) set it in a session that is remembered on server side; 3) set it in a cookie that is remembered on browser side. If there's another option, I don't know what it would be.
