Setting up the preferred Language for the UI

when creating new profiles on startup

one "base" content pack per language is profile bound and will have to be set at profile creation. There is a notion of a default content pack per selected language, hence the content pack selection menu list at the bottom will be set to default for those users who want to go with the content pack most suitable to the selected language. The contents of the content pack selection menulist could look like this:

default
________
content pack 1
content pack 2
content pack 3
