I have checked setlocale() in the windows, mac and ubuntu.
Windows and Mac don't support this function properly, for example:
In case of Windows7,
LC_CTYPE : C.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES : C.UTF-8

In case of MAC OS X 10.6,
LC_CTYPE : UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES : C

I think only Linux(Ubuntu 11.04) can support this properly, that is:
LC_CTYPE : en_US.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES : en_US.UTF-8

IMHO, LC_CTYPE indicates system's regional information whereas LC_MESSAGES indicates language.
In addition, Qt and Chromium ports implement this in the browser(app), i.e., not implemented in the webkit.
Similarly, what would you think, for Efl and Gtk ports, implement this function (i.e., getting navigator's language information) in the browser instead of in the WebKit.



How about efl and gtk implement this like qt an chromium.
