You could indicate how in

This coud be a Debian ( or even better, a Common Linux ) script/file, so 
the desktop users can use a common reference to change locales. Using a 
GUI fronted ( i.e. a web based, like CUPS ) would be an easy way to 
change the locales.

Better a mini-mod to dowload mini-mods for a concrete region. I.e. a 
mini-mod where the user could select a flag to install the locales for 
his/her language/country.
