Weird little bug, looking for other's experiences...

I think I've been encountering a bug where in some cases, game text is displaying the in the language a targeted player is set to, instead of the language (English) my client is set to. I've encountered this twice now in the past two days:

Yesterday, in Pocket D on the Beta server I was getting Info on the various NCSoft types. When I examined 7deCouer, his power info (Primary/Secondary/Pools, but *not* set bonuses) were displayed in French.

Today during a Praet invasion on Union, our team leadership switched to a different player, and the message stating this was displayed in German.

Admitedly, I'm guessing about 7dC and our team leaders language settings, but 7dC is a French language mod, and the team leader had used German in some of his chat previously.

Is this something widely known, that I've just happened to be oblivious to until now, or this new? Has anyone else had similar experiences?

I don't know, I'm not looking for a solution, which is primarily what gets posted in the Tech Issues forum. I have no expectation of this being a "user serviceable" issue. I'm just looking to see if anyone else has noticed this.

When you move your toon from Zukunft ort Vigilance to another server, something goes wrong with your settings, meaning that your character will be receiving half English/German (French) information.

It looks as if the language is determined by server settings and client settings. I find it hilarious really. Especialy when people go, huh what is happening. But is is an old 'feature' and not likely to change.
