I have noticed that localized month names also come with the first letter in
lowercase, as opposed to the default behavior in English. Is this what this bug
report is all about? Your report is a little confusing, since there's already
parameters to format weekdays and months.

I wrote "The usual way of writing the full/abbreviated name of a month or a
weekday" but I meant to write "The usual way of writing the full/abbreviated
name of a month or a weekday *for my locale*..."

The usual way of writing the full/abbreviated name of a month or a weekday is
with all lower case letters, e.g. 'december' as opposed to 'December'. And
'maandag' as opposed to 'Monday'.
My locale is nl_nl. See
http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoofdletter_in_de_Nederlandse_spelling#Perioden
(in Dutch) for explanation.
Request is to add format parameters for weekdays and months:
maandag;dinsdag;woensdag;donderdag;vrijdag;zaterdag;zondag
januari;februari;maart;april;mei;juni;juli;augustus;september;oktober;november;december
