IIRC, it probably is harmless itself.  But there's more than one impl
of the MVC LocaleResolver interface.  We'd want to consider whether we
want to dictate a particular one in the (unmodifiable) system config. 
Other people might want to use different approaches.

Since we're adding that support, I'd say just allowing users to add a
new LocaleResolver (or change the default) there might be safer.  That
way we don't hardcode something in that's difficult or impossible for
deployers to change.
