I'm afraid it would be a huge effort to implement this because,
as you have already noticed, the locale data are already buried
deep inside glibc upstream. The process would require unbundling
them and then either repackaging from the same source or update
from CLDR if CLDR is newer than glibc. It's easier to contribute
upstream and get a complete glibc tarball with CLDR data updated.

OTOH, the locale data from glibc are already split into subpackages
(langpacks) but the aim is not to distribute them all together
(e.g., in a Live DVD) and not to force the user to install them all.
They are still built from the same tarball.

Rafal
