In addition to it being an argument for single user login, it's really an argument for MediaWiki to detect what your local language is and show its interface in that language by default. It really makes no sense for the Mongolian Wikipedia to shows its interface in Mongolian when your browser is screaming "US English! Any English! Spanish!" at it. It probably breaks several W3C standards this way.
(Out of curiosity: why does it do this? Has this ever been discussed?)
