Yeah I think I'll look into the rails-i18n code and Globalize3 code
over the weekend. It seems like Globalize3 also stores a setting in
the Thread called :globalize_locale. I wonder if that means I could
have a different setting for the UI and for the Content. I was mostly
opening up a discussion to see if others had the same kinda problems
to solve.

Thanks for the feedback.
