I think we have the basic support. But maybe we need some nice
feature in some frontends (like to select the searching lang, etc.),
to config the language in d-i, apt-setup, ...

yes, but the sid files on ftp-master ist 12 month old...
In the result we have to do and coordinate some tasks.

I don't think this is a good lenny goal, maybe a lenny+1 goal.
But we should start to diskuss this on debconf. This is not only a
i18n task. We can improve the system/fix some problems in our package
system with some changes.
