Chrome Extension for Switching Locale (Accept-Languages)

Is there a Chrome Extension which can be used to quickly switch between two locales (e.g. English and German) quickly? Some websites detect the user's language using the Accept-Languages HTTP-header while not having any UI to configure the desired language. In that case the only way I know of to change the language is to change the mentioned HTTP-header.

Actually, any quick way to switch locales will do. It does not have to be an extension.

Commenter Lamb suggests the following:

Bookmark chrome://settings/languages and then you just need to Drag and Drop the language to make it default.

I think this is a workable solution.

I have written a Chrome extension which does exactly that: Quick Language Switcher.

Replacement plugin (original link dead) Language Switcher
