This is what the remote server tells a client, but the client did not
tell the server which locale it has.
Now consider we have hosting service that hosts projects accessible from
a wide range of users, all of them having different locales. Which language
should the remote speak? (Not knowing which language the client speaks).

These sound like they are done locally and could be translated easily.
However I wonder if we have issues with leaky plumbing in the user porcelain.
Thanks,
