Yes, you are right. Was not really obvious to me.
Here is an updated version of the config.xml of the online example of installer framework
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Installer>

<!-- Directory name is used in component.xml -->
<StartMenuDir>Qt IFW Examples</StartMenuDir>

The installer starts then with all text in English. Tested on Windows 7 64bit with German as local language.
