Summary0002117: default language for admin
Description

even if in config_inc.php we set

# --- language settings -----------
$g_default_language     = 'italian';

# list the choices that the users are allowed to choose
$g_language_choices_arr = array( 'italian', 'english');

the default language for "administrator" is still english, for all other users (ex. an user upgraded to admin) is italian.

As you found out, the "administrator" is a special case because it is already added in an empty database with language set in preferences as "english". One way to fix this is to support a language named "<default>". So if a user like administrator has the language set as default, the default language is used from config_inc.php.

Now that we have language detection, I suppose we could make the default language 'auto', or whatever the string is.
