I agree with you there. However, it makes way less sense to base it on the "Standards and Formats" setting, which is about "how some programs format numbers, currencies and time" and actually has nothing to do with language at all. And that's the current situation. > If you're unhappy with the automatic locale selection, you can simply > override > using the LANG environment variable.

It may have side effects, but not any I don't want, as I want other programs to run in English as well (even though I want to use the decimal comma, the dot as a thousand separator, the euro sign as the currency symbol and day before month in both long and short date format - though all of those can be accomplished by selecting English as a base and modifying it to match the Dutch settings, there is one thing I can't do: use the Dutch Month names, and 19 August just doesn't look right).
