[imp] Can't get the ?language variable in IMP RC4.

[Jan Schneider]

The current behaviour is the following: If a user accesses horde without 
being logged in, the page is displayed in the language the user selected in 
his browser's preferences as his preferred one.
If he changes the language on the login screen, it is switched to the 
selected one.
If he logs in the language is read from the preferences. If the user didn't 
set a preferred language in the preferences so far the standard value from 
prefs.php is selected (as with any preference).

I agree that it would make more sense to choose the language the user 
selected on the login screen if he didn't select one in the preferences so 
far but that is currently not supported by the preferences backend. Perhaps 
we find a way do handle this more gracefully. Patches are welcome!
