I think it would be best to also have a possibility to set the SMW-wide default
to ISO8601, like in my proposal. Adding a possible printout modifier value
"localized" (which would override the SMW-wide default setting) would then give
all possibilities.
My reason behind this: I think users who are accustomed to the ISO8601 date
format will find it peculiar to see the localised dates, which are still the
unchangeable default in your implementation, and they show up in the Browse
Properties output, for example.
