Yes, the locale code for each each category does determine what translations will get used for that category. While Qt doesn't (yet) have that level of complexity, other toolkits may, such as glibc or gtk or Java or ICU. We're setting a desktop-wide setting here, not just something for KDE/Qt apps only to use.
