No, I think this is true for every user-installed application. I'm assuming that your application is meant to be installed by an administrator for multiple users (using different locales), which is the only setting I can think of where this behavior might possibly make sense. > we already use them because KDE already provides us with the necessary flexibility. But is this an actual feature or an implementation detail? Can you point to any KDE applications which rely on this behavior? I consider the proposed behavior pretty odd, and so far we have a single example of an application that wants this - that doesn't look like a good reason for a spec change to me to be honest (in particular as you should be able to implement the desired behavior in a less convenient, but spec compliant way).
