We don't. > 2. set the *default* based on location, which has everything to do with it We do. That's why a locale has a country in it, since the conventions of when the week starts are usually country specific. sv_SE does start the week on Monday, while en_UK starts the week on Sundays. > 3. let users change the default in case it is guessed wrong (this would be enough as a workaround) That's indeed the bit which we don't have a GUI for (which sets the LC_MESSAGES/LC_TIME conventions for you). > However, for this to happen, we first need a sudden outbreak of common > sense in this issue. Please stop trolling. I already acknowledged several times that such a GUI is missing, and explained how you can locally configure it for your system.
