Yikes!  I assume you mean it is "Evil" that detection of system locale is
currently the only way to set one's language, not that it is evil for

That indeed is a very good and repeatedly-requested feature that we have
never gotten around to implementing.

Also, while I cannot claim to be Scottish given that my family has been in
North America for several generations, my direct paternal ancestors did
emigrate from Scotland to Canada around 1790, so I am delighted to hear of
