Following on from this, what about: KDE already groups languages (well kpersonalizer does ;)) as Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Asia, etc... Couldn't we compromise and have language packs similarly? ie I want Chinese, so I have to put up with koffice-i18n-asia, french koffice-i18n-weu (western europe ;))
Not ideal, but better than having a huge i18n package containing loads of languages I don't want...
