The trend these days seems to be to let PAM handle this for all login
sessions.  PAM is usually configured to load settings such as this
from /etc/environment.  Therefore I think /etc/environment is the
right place for setting the default user locale.

However PAM does not affect system daemons started at boot time.
Therefore the normal init configuration for system daemons is still
required.
