Yeah, that's right. I set it to C because it needs less typing :)

Yeah. There are three main issues with translated messages:
* Try searching anything on Google with french messages. You'll be lucky if you find something, and you'll get
billionsof results in english.
* Try asking something in the mailing lists with french messages. The first answer will be: get us the english
messages.
* Try using any log parser (like pgfouine) with french messages. It won't work (even with this tool, written by a
frenchguy).
I said french, but I suppose these issues are also a problem to other
languages. Other meaning all but english.

Well, pgAdmin could read lc_messages value to guess if it can read it.
That's probably all we can do.
