I thought I'd give you my two bits about the dialect change, as an 'American'. I like the idea of putting the dialect change in either the warnings or summary. I think I might feel like the story was misrepresented and be disappointed in the change if it wasn't made clear that it was going to be part of the story up front, but if I did know about it going in, I would probably just think that its a really neat idea.
So basically, imho, you should just make sure that your readers know that a dialect change is part of your AU universe.
