> In Struts 2.5.5 and prior 2.5.x/2.3.x, the I18nInterceptor honoured the locale state set programmatically via session (e.g. session.put(I18nInterceptor.DEFAULT_SESSION_ATTRIBUTE, localeForUser); ).
> Struts 2.5.8 ignores a locale state set programmatically via session (or at least it does so after the 1st failed lookup).
> *Issue cause: Changes in 2.5.8 storeLocale()/readStoredLocale() behaviour causes "storage == Storage.NONE" after 1st lookup failure, and i18nInterceptor will never again check session/cookie scopes for a locale.  Appears to have been introduced with changes for WW-4722.
> *Bug elements:
>   1) readStoredLocale() - Never checks session/cookie level for a saved locale (after first lookup failure sets "storage = Storage.NONE").
>   2) readStoredLocale() - The "if block" checks are inverted.  When "storage == Storage.COOKIE" it checks session, when "storage == Storage.SESSION" it checks cookie (appears this was addressed in update to WW-4722 on 2017/01/11).
>   3) LocaleFinder/saveLocale() - No longer provides default lookup at session level, no longer preserves the storage level where the lookup succeded.
> *Suggested remedy:
>   1) Restore logic equivalent to 2.5.5 and earlier that will always check session and cookie scopes for Locale, irrespective of what the current i18n interceptor instance's storage value is set to.
>      Change readStoredLocale() to check all scopes, restore storage scope state to LocaleFinder and calls to saveLocale().  Use LocaleFilender's scope state (tracking immediate request's locale storage level) during request processing (and if possible, leave i18n interceptor's scope fixed/unchanged).
>   2) Add logic to I18nInterceptor that preserves the initially configured storage type/scope for the lifetime of the i18n interceptor.  This could be done by adding a new protected member to I18nInterceptor (e.g. protected configuredStorage), which gets initialized similarly to "storage" but only modified in the initial setLocaleStorage() call (so its value stays intact until explicitly changed by configuration).
> Either way it appears the I18nInterceptor needs a mechanism to ensure that it will always look for Locale at the session/cookie level (or at the very least the level that was initially configured for the interceptor), irrespective of what the current storage value is set to.  Without such logic the i18n interceptor stops looking for anything other than the request/invocation context level (after the first lookup failure, irrespective of original storage setting).  Tracking the configured storage scope (global) and the immediate request's scope (local) separately might be appropriate.
> *Note: API documentation for I18nInterceptor "storage" parameter appears incorrect as well.  The new configuration parameter in 2.5.8 should indicate "localeStorage" for configuring the locale storage parameter (it indicates "storage" currently, but that fails as it doesn't match the setter's name).
