One reason I'm alligned on this, is that it will give more ability to
add language information, and translations. Without making such additions
look like orphans... 'man' pages only, 'hello' messages only, etc... but
rather a full system, that is open and growing.
I think it will also give users the feeling that their language is fully
supported, to see it there in the open :-)
But what are people thinking about configurations? Like, selecting a
country...
