Get Selenium WebDriver locale

How can I get current browser locale from WebDriver? There is the way to set locale, e.g.

FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();  
profile.setPreference("intl.accept_languages", "en");
m_webDriver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);

But the problem is that it doesn't always work for some reason (not sure, but seems it doesn't work for Windows 8). So I need to run driver with the set preferences, get browser locale to make sure it works or not, and use appropriate locale for UI elements.

You can execute the following JavaScript in WebDriver to get it correct:

var language = window.navigator.userLanguage || window.navigator.language;
