Considering that mobile relies on the API for a large percentage of it's UI and currently serves about half of our traffic, I'm pretty surprised this change was not discusses with the mobile team. I'm on a bus right now and haven't been able to test things thoroughly, but it looks like some parts of the mobile interface are no longer properly localized for logged in users, e.g. notifications. I'll look into this further when I get to the office.

By the way - once we support localized error messages (soon, I hope), does this change mean that bots will always see localized error messages, unless they add the uselang parameter to all requests?
No. The plan there is that errors and warnings will be output in English (and in the old format for warnings) unless specifically requested otherwise.
