Yes, it's better that way, no duplicating of code, and since pretty
much all languages have similar ways to set things it would be a
waste of space to have a script per language (actually per locale
entry).

Ok, we can integrate this in l-c.

this is not supposed to be configured in l-c, it's configured at boot
time by d-i/base-config. I don't think we should touch this.

I have no idea about this one.

Doesn't tetex configure this itself? If not, and if there are no
immediate plans to do so, we can include such a script in l-c.

I don't know about that I had the impression that it's configured
elsewhere.

Ok, we can do both (actually I already wanted to do mozilla).

This is a matter of the console-* packages not l-c.

We can do this.

Feel free to prepare a patch. Mind you, there are many ready routines
to add/set a variable in a configuration file and it would be best to
use what is already there. Please let me know before you commit your
patches.
