Body: <p>Can I change the current locale?</p>
  
  <p>I've set up a standard site, using CRAFT client version (one language). Apparently Craft installs the en_us as the primary language. Content is added (in Dutch) and now some months later the client decides to upgrade to Craft PRO and move to a multilingual site adding an additional locale. As en_us was the primary one nl_nl is added as the next locale.</p>
  
  <p>However all Dutch content was added in the (old) en_us locale. Is there a way to swap this? Change the en_us to nl_nl while keeping the Dutch content in place?</p>

  Can I change the current locale?
  
  I've set up a standard site, using CRAFT client version (one language). Apparently Craft installs the en\_us as the primary language.
