  Yes. s-c-l still changes system language in f19. See bug 871119 which 
says "
systemd has uses /etc/locale.conf instead of /etc/sysconfig/i18n if the 
former is present (see https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/963) and in 
the future will even entirely drop the support for /etc/sysconfig/i18n"

   I think other DE can use this as s-c-l also read/write to global 
/etc/locale.conf file.

Good to get some testing to know how Gnome language change and s-c-l 
behaves together on F19.
  What I observed s-c-l changes system root user messages/language 
whereas Gnome language change using g-c-c changes that user's 
environment to new language including preset IM in F19 Alpha.
