Comment (by davecpage):

 In testing i've noticed that plugins which use `load_plugin_textdomain`
 such as Akismet show in the site language e.g. Spanish, even though the
 user language is set to English. This appears to be because within the
 function it uses `get_locale()`
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/wp-
 includes/l10n.php#L796 rather than the newer `get_user_locale()`.

 However does this raise the problem of plugins which have a mix of content
 in the admin and the frontend?
