I don't think that it's either necessary or desirable - I've never run into a situation where I bought a product based on what it was written in, and there are a bunch of apps that use non-descript file extensions (like .DAT) where being able to cruise through the app with a hex editor to find out what language was used to develop things after the fact is the only thing that let me figure out what to do with the old apps data files...
