But that will also make them speak English to me ;) I don't like it. The
original problem is not in the fact I hate Russian - that's my native,
folks! It is in inconsistency - why we nls yes-or-no questions and don't all
other user input? Do national-kbd-users throughout the world prefer this
way? I can imagine that most european languages that use only several
non-English chars are easy here, but what for the others? I don't have a
single letter shared between latin and cyrillic layouts ;-)
Why not just add a definable feature with default to current behaviour?
Say, NLS_YES_OR_NO?
