--- Comment #1 from Sean Flanigan <sflaniga at redhat.com> ---
It certainly is confusing, with the different field names ("Language"
apparently means locale code), and the sort-of-lower-cased, sort-of-not
handling for the locale code.

It is supposed to be a *single* locale code which the user enters, which is
then split up (into language and country) using well defined rules.  We don't
want the user entering a locale code which doesn't match the language and
country!

I don't think we should lock it down to reject non-standard language/country
codes completely, but we should certainly warn the user about them.


Allowing the user to specify the unknown locale's display name, and native
name, would be a nice extension.

This screen should also ask the admin to supply plural rules for unknown
languages.  This obviously implies storing the rules in the database.
