Title:
  Apport changes local language of interface which a bug report is
  submitted with

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Reproducable with Natty, Oneiric, Precise.
  Since it is expected to report bugs in english, a user with non-english local environment uses prefix LANG=C to ease a triage.
  What happens:
  When e.g. Firefox wasn't running at this time and opened by apport from terminal, it then changes it's interface (application- and context menu, tooltips) also to english. Unless Firefox is closed and reopened it remains in english.
  Apport dialogs also change to english.
  Expected:
  Report a bug in english, but don't change local language of the application which submits the bug report.
