--- Comment #3 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
The font language is a text attribute and affects spell-checking and the like.
The number format language (locale) affects only the number format.

The status bar setting the global document language (like choosing "[None]") or
More... raising the Tools -> Options -> Language Settings -> Languages dialog
IMHO is completely wrong.
Changing "Default Languages for Documents" there leads to setting all cells'
default font language (if not set differently already).
Changing "Language Of","Locale setting" there leads to setting all cells'
default number format locale (if not set differently already).
The status bar language displays the global Western "Default Languages for
Documents", also when changed it's updated only after some other action.

However, according to the tooltip ("Text Language. ... character or paragraph
language") picking a language from the context menu should attribute the font
language of the selected cell(s), and More... should raise the Format -> Cells
(Ctrl+1) dialog with tab Font.
