For Spanish speakers (like me), there's a "task-spanish" package, which
installs (between others) a "castellanizar" program, which modify the
global shell rc's for supporting ñáéíóúäëïöü... on any program, including
the shell command line.

Is there something like that for German users? If not, wouldn't be a good
idea package it?
