I just tried to test it. I set the GUI to Japanese and then accessed various 
pages of the GUI. Including "Network Services" / "EMail". I clicked on the 
menu dozends of times, but the displayed pages always showed up in Japanese 
and not toggled back to English (or another language) once. I tested this on 
5107R and 5108R with Firefox under Linux and Windows.

No, the problem isn't the language files. They are 99,9% identical between 
5106R and 5107R and 5108R. 

Please check your /etc/sysconfig/i18n file on the server and let me know what 
information is in it.

We had a similar problem with locales early on in 5107R (before 5108R was 
released). Back on 5106R the supported locales were "en", "de", da" and "jp".

In RHEL6 and clones we needed to be more specific, so locales changed from 
"en" to "en_US", from "de" to "de_DE" and from "da" to "da_DK". Japanese 
remained at "jp", although there is also a "ja_JP" locale. On SL6 the 
directory /usr/share/locale/ja_JP/LC_MESSAGES/ is entirely empty and all the 
Japanese locales rest in /usr/share/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/ instead.

Which could be a problem. Maybe we need to move the Japanese locales from 
/usr/share/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/ to /usr/share/locale/ja_JP/LC_MESSAGES/?

What happens if you copy everything from /usr/share/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/ to 
/usr/share/locale/ja_JP/LC_MESSAGES/? Does it still toggle?
