This aspect had given me some new inspiration -  ;-)
a workaround I tried with success ->
'The Guerrilla Way (a long way off perfection)'.

Changing all "es_CU" (Cuba) entries to e.g. a not installed Spanish
language module as "es_DO" (Dom. Rep.).

a) There are roughly fifteen language/country combinations for which that has to be done, due to the wars that the US is currently engaged in. "Official" OOo releases can not include them, because doing so constitues "giving aid and comfort to the enemy" and/or "aiding and abetting terrorist activities".

That said, at least two derivatives/forks/whatever of OOo do include some of those country/language combinations.

b) This workaround has to be used for all language/country combinations that OOo does not currently support.

c) This workaround also has to be used for anybody who creates documents using an a11y writing system, and a non-a11y writing system, in the same language. For Braille, that means 8 language/country combinations are used per language. For Moon that means 2 language/country combinations are used per language. [Once the ODF toolkit is released, an office suite designed for a11y will be created, thereby negating the "need" for OOo to fix this issue in regards to a11y.]
