/**
 * Implementation of LocaleResolver that uses a cookie sent back to the user
 * in case of a custom setting, with a fallback to the accept header locale.
 * This is particularly useful for stateless applications without user sessions.
 *
 * Custom controllers can thus override the user's locale by calling
 * setLocale, e.g. responding to a certain locale change request.
