That should be:

1. Default preference, if locked.
2. Language will be set based on language drop-down on login refresh  
(if language switching allowed)
3. Session language is used (pre-auth session will have language set  
if the login screen has been reloaded)
4. Finally, browser detection.
5. System-wide default used (nls config)

1. Value in user's prefs will ALWAYS control (regardless of login  
screen language selection)
2. Language from login screen will be used (if language switching allowed)
On initial login session is new/clean; language info unavailable here
On subsequent login, this contains the session language (code will  
ALWAYS stop here after user is authenticated)
3. Finally, browser detection.
4. System-wide default used (nls config)
