I don't know off-hand myself. My guess is that libc reads them at
program startup, so somehow you'd need to convince it to re-read it.
But that locale -a workaround wouldn't help language-selector, as you
still couldn't actually set the locale for language-selector itself or
the session, you need to relogin in any case.

Done.
