No, as I've said I have nothing against the functionality per se, but
just wanted to give a heads up that this might have some not
immediately obvious consequences.

Maybe it makes sense to add some big fat warning in a NEWS or changelog
file, telling people that their scripts may now run under another
locale and perhaps also giving some explanation on possible subtle
consequences?


Cheers,
