Is there a way to start an application in different language wihtout rebooting phone?

I need this to write meaningful bug reports... for that, at least I need english titles of items I select . Normally I run n900 in Russian language, and I'm not comfortable with rebooting device just to check "how that is called in english" ...

I do "LC_ALL=$LOCALE $PROGRAMNAME" from the terminal. Depending on the program, I may need to do "dsmetool -k $PATHTOPROGRAM/$PROGRAM" first. I wouldn't try this trick with the Browser, however; it does abuse maemo-launcher quite a bit...

What about "destktop components"?

E.g. is it possible to "restart" desktop, to get menus in english, but without restarting running applications?
