Is it possible to have a small "Language" select box top right on the navbar that allows user to select their own language?

It could be implemented. I am guessing the issue is international communities with categories for different languages?

Yeah, exactly.
Should I just implement it as a plugin or something? Not very familiar with the mechanism of changing the locale in Misago project though.

I'm afraid this is not supported by plugin system :| One would have to create PR that adds language to user model, and language picker somewhere in the UI (eg. on user forum options page). Then, finally, Django middleware could be added that would active user language after they pass banned check.
