for keymaps yes, but for dead keys trough xkb composing mechanism
it does matter a lot.
if you use LC_ALL=el_GR.UTF-8 you can type with dead keys all
greek polytonic, but probably only a limited set of latin
accents.
with LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 you can type lots of different latin
accents, but only monotonic Greek.
and with LC_ALL=ja_JP.UTF-8 you can't type any dead key at all.
