I find that as good integration. In my RCD Notes there is contact
management and people may have "communication language" assigned, in
turn language may have input method set.

What about relations? Person may be member of team A which has main
languag German, but in the list of people B, the main language is
English, so every relation also requires possible designation of the
language. 

We could say "anything is possible" to program with almost any
programming language.

But what we do not have is integration. Integration of small features
into one.

Thunderbid shows how integration works, it helps in usability.

Emacs is full of disintegrated interesting small packages, minimizing
usability.
