 > Well, let's say that you want a Unicode setup.

 For what application?

 "The /etc/sysconfig/console file only controls the Linux text console
 localization. It has nothing to do with setting the proper keyboard layout
 and terminal fonts in the X Window System, with ssh sessions or with a
 serial console."

 > Or you need to change the console log level. Or you want to use a
 prettier font. In that case, then I would NOT skip the entire section.

 Of course. That's one reason the section is there.  The vast majority of
 US users can skip it.

 > What would work best is to get rid of the above note and provide setups
 for US/UK English. Then provide default implementations for US/UK english
 systems.

 That would imply it's needed when it's not.
