Please keep in mind that these appear as emails in a crowded inbox, so
the subject line can be a good place to put valuable context.

For afterwards: I believe something like

	update-locale LANG=de_CH.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8

would do the right thing.

Making it settable by d-i during installation and by "dpkg-reconfigure
locales" is another story and probably requires someone to come up
with wording and flow for the prompts that is not too distracting to
people not using this feature.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
