This should probably be a blueprint, as it sounds like a pretty major feature.

Really? It seems like a wsgi middleware could look at a header and set the locale for the request.

Nachi was originally going to file as a blueprint but I felt that it should become a blueprint only if it isn't a trivial fix (which I hope it is)

We need a way to differentiate between user-facing i18n and server-facing i18n. We can't have a request change the language of log lines.
