+Summary: environment variables should be respected when activating components
+
+Real life-example: on my system, $LANG is set to "ru". I want to start
+Evolution-0.11 with English locale, so I run it in bash as following
+        LANG=en evolution
+(killing all user processes before it, so no active components would be
+running, and then logging in to gnome and running 'killev' 5 times). But I
+get evolution components running under "ru" locale (they
+have interface displayed in russian) - it seems it's because bonobo
+components are activated by oafd (or whatever) that was started under "ru"
+locale.
+ So when component is being activated, environment variables of the client
+processes should be exported to the component before starting it. Probably
+even if the component is on remote computer, all environment variables need
+to be exported to it. Or the ones from the list of variables either hardcoded
+into oaf or listed in configuration file (the later is much more preferable!).
+ It's very critical bug that violates all locale concepts for bonobo-enabled
+programs.
