First, language is different from locale.  And second, we don't even
have a buffer-local notion of language yet.  What we can support (but
seldom if ever do) is to have buffer-local case-conversion table,
which is a very small part of language- or locale-dependent settings.

So no, buffer-local aspects in general don't affect what you have in
mind, not yet anyway.
