<pre>So i went to LO's download page[1] and chose the arabic language i wanted to
use LO in and clicked the download link, which took me to another page[2] to
begin downloading. Unfortunately what i downloaded wasnt what i was hoping for,
as it is the same download file for all languages. I was hoping that the file i
downloaded
a. launch the installer in arabic, even if the system had a different locale
b. would cause LO to launch with the arabic UI preselected and possibly only
contain the arabic UI (along with english UI is its is mandatory), but not
every single other language UI that i wont be using, which would result in a
smaller downloaded file.
c. it set the user locale to an arabic user locale, so i dont have to open the
non-UX friendly options dialog searching for the setting and dont have to
search online for guides to get it into arabic, like this one[3].
I think that having these changes would make the installer and first launch
user experience alot more pleasant for new and old users.
