I'm using Russian translation (and trying to maintain it actually),
but when I need to report bug and/or make screenshot I'm usually
do in the console:

set LANG=C
bzr explorer .

etc.

Not so fast and not so hard, please. Language codes much more complex than just es (Spanish) or ru
(Russian).
GNU gettext supports country codes in addition to language codes, so

es_ES is the Spain Spanish
es_MX is the Mexico Spanish
