This was extremely clear in your mail already :^)
I was merely trying to establish good reasons why people would want to
be able to choose from within Xfce. I understand the implications on
the code - and indeed they are ugly, but IMO that's because of gdm/kdm
being such mainstream desktops, or rather, despite ;^).
I should really ask the 'slim' devs to allow languages to be selected ;^)
