--- Comment #18 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
In terms of the user interface, it would look more or less the same as how it
currently looks. But on the backend, checking the "Use Detailed Settings"
checkbox would instantly assign values to all the LC_* vars. Then there would
be a new "Language" control. Clicking on it would take you to a new page where
you would be able to put languages in your preferred order. The top item would
be assigned to $LANG. There would be no separate Language KCM.
This would be a somewhat gross abuse of the POSIX locale system, but the POSIX
locale system is very limited and largely unsuitable in its current form for
providing a good user experience, so I think we'd have to if we want to solve
this issue on the KDE side.
