While you're thinking (and possibly acting) on this, I suggest that
LOCALE be an attribute of text in an Abi document, not much different
from fonts, sizes, and other treatments.  I'd imagine a default LOCALE
for a document, and then menu items for switching LOCALE, changing the
LOCALE of a highlighted region, etc.  (This is an idea that was
discussed briefly a few months back with respect to smart quotes with
different rules for different LOCALEs.  Same idea for spelling.)
