Does it have any sense? BE language is just a choise of BE editor and 
that can be different, for example somebody would like to use Finnish 
and somebody else Englich as BE language. Then it is no sense that 
records match with BE language. BE language has totally different task 
as FE language.

If the language should relate with the FE language

BE language has no id like FE language because they are handled by keys.
FE languages have free choise. Then there is no natural connection 
between FE an d BE languages.

Or do you mean that you have a seletor, which shows available languages, 
you would like select the language, you want to have in FE.
The be selection then relates with FE languages.

FE language(s) has been set in TS config. You can't use that in BE forms 
for using configured language as the default BE language.

Maybe you can XCLASS alt_doc.php but I doubt that there is a BE function 
  getting data from TS config because BE doesn't need that information.
