You can put the locale into the user's session and can then use
CmsJspActionElement#getMessages(String bundleName, String language).

But I am having a problem with XmlPage. I can't see any simple way to
set the locale for a user explicitly, since CmsLocaleManager wants to
select the locale. 

Is the only place to set this the CmsXmlPageLoader#service() method?
