I would strongly oppose to that in linux.

Where is this setting in word? In firefox?  99% of the users to _not_
ever need to change this setting. You set the language at install time
and you are done with it. The one example that Abdel gave is for
translators. To be more precise, it would be for translators that
translate in more that one language :)

I really do not think we need to add lyxrc entries for each and every
feature that might be useful to someone.
