Is the ability to set the language on a *per-application* basis, rather than on a system-wide basis, really helpful to 
very many users?

It doesn't seem so to me, although I sometimes use different locales. If I wanted to set language per-application in 
Windows, it can still easily be done with a batch file by setting the environment variable first.  I would note, too, 
that QtLinguist, whose authors may actually have considered this issue, does respect the system locale, but does not 
provide a separate means of setting the language.
