Hope you are going to find something which can be easily copied to other KDE 
apps ... ;-)

There is another switch implemented in the Country & Language module of 
KControl which even works on the fly without the need of restarting the app 
(and I think something like this will also be implemented in KPersonalizer, 
too). But I don't know how this is done.
