I've removed the locales
  French - Belgium
  French - Canada
  French - Luxembourg
  French - Monaco
  French – Switzerland
from dict-fr.oxt as follows  ->

1) Disable the dictionary extension in Extension Manager
2) Close OOo
3) Edit the dictionary.xcu file in
   <share\uno_packages\cache\uno_packages\xx.tmp_\dict-fr.oxt>
->
<prop oor:name="Locales" oor:type="oor:string-list">
  <value>fr-FR fr-BE fr-CA fr-CH fr-LU fr-MC</value>
</prop>

change to
->
<prop oor:name="Locales" oor:type="oor:string-list">
  <value>fr-FR</value>
</prop>

in
<node oor:name="HunSpellDic_fr_FR-Classique-et-Réforme1990" oor:op="fuse">
<node oor:name="HyphDic_fr-FR" oor:op="fuse">
<node oor:name="ThesDic_fr-FR" oor:op="fuse">

4) Save the file
5) Open OOo and Extension Manager, enable the dictionary extension
6) Close OOo and restart

Voilà tout - it remains the locale French - France ...
Well - that's only a workaround  ;-)
