I wouldn't want something like this to be fast tracked unless there is practically unanimous support for it. There seems to be a reasonable argument against it though, so fast tracking would be inappropriate. As truedfx noted on bug 133758, LC_ALL=C can be set in the ebuild environment via an entry in /etc/env.d/, so people already have an avenue to get the requested behavior if they want it.
