            Bug ID: 154366
           Summary: Fallback mechanism for hyphenation from specific to
                    general/default language locale
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.6.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Linguistic
          Assignee: [email protected]

Some locales of languages may be missing hyphenation info; but users still do
want hyphenation, even for obscure locales. It makes sense to allow falling
back on on more general locale, or on a popular specific locale which does have
hyphenation data available.

Example:

en_IL          - no hyphenation available
en             - would work (if this is defined at all)
en_UK or en_US - good enough fallback options for en_IL

A mechanism for enabling such fallbacks should be implemented and exposed to
users.
