What about you talk?
As I see current default -- no login class, locale "C".
I don't see any scrip/tools (in base systems) for creating users and
ack 'language/locale for user'.
I don't like to remove koi8 locale from base systems (at least in 20
years) -- you can see discursion in -current about Win95 (created 20
yars ago).
