A good question.  For the new installation system, it'd be a really
good improvement.  OTOH, if this would change suddenly the setup of
the already "working" system, one would regard it as a regression.

I guess CJK users should have already selected the list, so there will
be no impact by this update.  But what about users of systems with
some ibus engines but in other locales?
