Personally I would find it quite bothersome if I had to set the language
for every program instead of just setting a locale for my user and
having everything following it.
Users on shared computers can easily (I believe: how easy may depend on the
desktop environment used) set their own locale, even if the system-wide
default is different from their choice, even just for a session,
and it is also possibile to change the locale shown to a single
locale respecting program, to support the mixed language environment
you mentioned, but the reverse is not true.
