Description
A user can choose the language on a Moodle Site Homepage and in his profile.
There are situations where this is less than ideal:
1) If a student comes directly to a course or resource with a link (so he never sees the site homepage)
2) When checking multilingual content (especially for the person editing the course/page)
3) When working in another language and wanting to easily change to English to see if the strings/documentation is correctly translated or equally complete
I would like there to be choices at the course administration level to
Display language choice menu [_] on course start page, [_] on all (possible) pages in the course.
Languages on language menu (langlist) [_______________________________________]
I would even like this possible even if the language choice menu was not chosen as display at the homepage administration level. There could be situations where it could be good to have different general and specific settings.

I have since discovered that people, with a hacker disposition, can manually change the displayed language by adding "&lang=xx"
to the URL in the location bar of the browser and hit ENTER. (xx being the abbreviation for the language you want.)
