digging on this, I don't think this can be taken.  But the idea is 
workable.

In the meanwhile, try to get and .xpi/jar for the langpack extension.  
This can be installed local with <file><open file> or global as root 
with the -install-global-extension option.

You may chose the locale for a user with the -UILocale option or using 
the MOZILLA_UILOCALE env

$ firefox -UILocale ja-JA

$ MOZILLA_UILOCALE="ja-JA"; export MOZILLA_UILOCALE
$ firefox
