Public bug reported:
New users are created with the admin's current language (the value of
the LC_MESSAGES environment variable) as the initial language. It would
make more sense IMO to let the system language, as set in
/etc/default/locale, serve as the initial language at user creation.
I suppose that 'the culprit' is the
cc_common_language_get_current_language() function in panels/common/cc-
common-language.c. Personally I question the adequateness of that
function, so one idea would be to replace it with e.g. a
cc_default_system_language() function that parses /etc/default/locale.
