As a Finnish-speaker, I hope that patch doesn't become default behavior. Too many times, we have been victimized by the German conventions. A Finnish-speaker would much rather see Järvenpää => Jarvenpaa Öllölä => Ollola Kärkkäinen => Karkkainen than Järvenpää => Jaervenpaeae Öllölä => Oelloelae Kärkkäinen => Kaerkkaeinen Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
