Let's make this into a Fedora 10 Proposed Feature:
- an interface for system administrators to set the default language,
like s-c-language does now, but extend it to tweak `locale`.
- an interface for users to tweak they're own little private `locale`.
Sounds like a good idea, I agree.

Enlist and add your comments, ideas, proposals and changes!
I think the main issue is to separate "language" from "locale". I
believe this is the main thing for most of us.
So if LANG and LC_MESSAGES is set from the language-selection and the
rest of LC_* is set from the location/timezone-selection I think we have
a reasonable default.
This should be a quite simple fix, as both these dialogs are already in
firstboot or anaconda.
Yes;
1) System (global) defaults
1a) Language selection now implies locale, and maybe it shouldn't
1b) Timezone selection does not impact locale, while maybe it should
2) End-User Preferences
==
1) makes for a good use-case to implement anything different from the
current situation; whether it goes into anaconda or firstboot or "System
> Administration" -I'm sorry I'm a GNOME user, rest assured it should
be available to _all_ desktop environments and the console. Setting
system locale defaults from the timezone selected in anaconda/firstboot
makes perfect sense. I'm thinking this may also imply some sort of
'locale --messages=nl_NL.utf8 --paper=de_DE.utf8' (or something similar)
in kickstart.
2) requires something _outside_ anaconda and firstboot, possibly in
"System > Preferences" (sorry for that, again).
I'll update the wiki feature page to reflect these things, soon.
Kind regards,
Jeroen van Meeuwen
