So the ISO-locale is available, but has the lowest priority, as it is
barely used in russian. I hope that other languages have their preferred
encodings at the top of the list.


The problem is that countrychooser does not look on priority now.

Ukraine should not be a problem - people living there and wishing russian
as their interface language will just choose Russian/Ukraine and get the
default ru_UA. Others should get ru_RU. Ukrainian language itself will get
uk_UA, so no problem here.

Agree.
