I had a friend move to Argentina and in order to improve his Spanish, he found a group that pairs fluent Spanish speakers learning English with fluent English speakers learning Spanish for one-on-one conversations. It was pretty informal in that the pair could meet wherever and whenever they wanted. Half the time they spoke in English, half the time they spoke in Spanish.
Perhaps software that scheduled live video chats of similar conversations between learners could help with the problem you bring up? Given that most language software aims at multiple languages anyway, seems like the only challenge is technical with the video chat (latency might be a problem although audio is pretty good too) and the scheduling interface. And I suppose enough users in each language willing to do such conversations.
