Description:
from customer feedback and  based on discussions with Alexander
(or from other analysis and discussions of issues and features where we thought
an rfe for i18n could be helpful)

if this is duplicate of existing rfe related to i18n, please close
as duplicate; we have looked at existing rfes with words i18n in synopsis and
tried not to file any duplicates. 


and if any of these are actually bugs, please change this to be a defect.

customer forum info:

The <locale-config> element serves two primary purposes:

* Advisory - providing information that can be used, for example,
  to compose the select items for a "select language" dropdown,
  based only on the locales actually supported by a particular
  web application.

* Pick the assumed locale for a non-Faces request (such as for
  the welcome page, when there was no previous Faces page from
  which to copy a selected locale.  If there is no <locale-config>
  information available, this defaults to the default locale
  of the app server.

 ---> RFE is to provide GUI to support building up a <locale-config> element,
and storing it in another config file (perhaps 
 /WEB-INF/locale-config.xml) so that it can be managed separately.
