I have reread your e-mail:
If users don't care the difference of IMS,  they will also don't care be 
assigned an pre defined IMF too, in this way,  we don't need auto select.
I want clear that  the "auto select" we discuss here means select an IMF 
base user's LANG env.

For SLE:
Because of we only keep only 1 IMF installed by default in the feature 
we metioned,
So run auto select at first time login is not useful.   if user install 
another IMF from source, he will make  a switch to new IMF or not only 
by their own favor.

For your previous idea:
We don't need to modify SLE installation program, because only 1IMF 
install by default, so user don't need to select.
I think  Add a dialog in "Settings" -> "region &language" is fine,  user 
can install other IMF and switch if they need;

For OpenSUSE, hope can insist on your previous decision, because it's 
far more better than current.
But if you install 2 or more IMF in system installation, Maybe you still 
need modify installation program.
