You might already have solved this problem, but have a look at my similar problem if not.

Problem:
The customer has a site with 19 languages in the "Show Page Tree" dropdown list (English being the default language), and the users have to select their language for every new session because the cookie "editlanguagebranch" that stores the language code is a session cookie. Quite often, users forget to change their language and create content in the English version of a page, but in a different language.
How we tried to solve this:
We added an initialization module that changed the cookie expiration to 1 year ahead, but the cookie was always recreated in EPiServer on each new session before the content was read.
We wonder how users can keep their selected "edit mode language" on a permanent base.
