I would suggest that the easiest way to do it would be from the server. 
  So have the XForm pull its labels from an external instance and point 
the @src attribute on the xf:instance to the server.  When the request 
comes in to the server, parse the accept header to figure out the locale 
of the browser, and send back the appropriate .xml file.  Otherwise 
you'll have to embed in your instance data all of the possible 
translations and switch to the appropriate language using form logic, 
which is also possible.  But the first suggestion I gave is the one that 
I think that most will use.
