Of the four fields, only two contain the necessary information to make a selection: the first and last (in parenthesis) fields. The superfluous information does clutter the interface with a lot of text. Well, we display the english and "native" name for the language and the native name for the locale. The thing is that for English, the english and "native" names are the same, but it's an exception. I could drop the language name in the locale name and show just the variants, but they won't be the full names of the locales. > Second, the locale listing doesn't appear to be ordered in an obvious way, e.g. Spanish locales are definitely not in alphabetical order, which is confusing. Same for English. They are ordered in the way the 'langtable' [1] sorts them which means from the one with the highest rank (the most probable one) to the one with the lowest rank (the least probable one). I'm not saying that the ranking/order is perfect, but that should be tweaked in the langtable. Patches are, of course, welcome.
