Currently VDR has its own directory with all its supported locales.
It can quickly collect all locales by going through the entries
in that directory. I can even compile my VDR so that it searches
for the locales in "./locale" inside the source directory.
I like the simplicity of this, and wouldn't want to make it any
more complex.
