PersistentLocale is lower-casing locales
----------------------------------------

                 Key: TAPESTRY-1997
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1997
             Project: Tapestry
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: tapestry-core
    Affects Versions: 5.0.6
            Reporter: Geoff Callender


An issue affecting localization: PersistentLocale is converting locales from 
mixed case to all lower case, which is useless for formatting.  For example, if 
page 1 sets the locale like this:

        @Inject
        private PersistentLocale _persistentLocaleService;

        Locale locale = Locale.UK;
        _persistentLocaleService.set(locale);
        System.out.println("locale is " + locale + " - " + 
locale.getDisplayName());
 
then this is what prints:

        locale is en_GB - English (United Kingdom)

But when I'm in page 2 I get the locale and find it has mutated...

        Locale locale = _persistentLocaleService.get();
        System.out.println("locale is " + locale + " - " + 
locale.getDisplayName());

...this is what prints:

        locale is en_gb - en_gb

This mutated locale in page 2 is useless for formatting.  Code like the 
following produces default-styling instead of the styling for en_GB:

        _myDateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.LONG, locale);
        System.out.println(_myDateFormat.format(new Date()));

It seems this has also adversely affected how supported-locales are declared 
(maybe in previous releases only).  See
