Re: Enabling more locales for Fenix

@Стоян: In your specific case, I will gladly "bypass" the current process
and add the locale for you.

Concerning the in-app locale switcher: please let's all assume good
intentions here.
The Fenix dev team is a very small team, and have a lot of features to
implement and deal with.
A language switcher is planned for sure, and it should be in the works
during Q3. This discussion is happening around android-components, that way
we can build upon it for our future products - and in the future this means
an in-app locale switcher can be implemented from the start (or at least,
much earlier on).
Our team (l10n-drivers) has always been very vocal and has advocated for
this in-app switcher right the moment that a Product team comes to us with
an Android request.
At the end of the day however, Product team is the decision-maker - not
l10n-drivers. We can advise and push for this - which is what we've always
done - but that's pretty much it.
In any case, once this is part of android-components, this should solve the
current problem going forward.

thanks for your patience and understanding,
Delphine
