This should be discussed with the localization-config maintainer but
that would require extra code in localization-config to not only take
the locale into account but also the chosen "country".

However my personal feeling about this is that locales are eaxctly
meant for that purpose: set parameters that depend on language AND
country.

So, if you actually want a paper size adapted to your country, I'd
recommend to set the locale properly.
