And what do you do when you need the Paper format, currency, numeric 
system, etc to be United States locale? Changing the GNOME format 
changes EVERY variable to whatever that country is set to (not 
necessarily what that country uses, what that country's file is set to). 
I live in the United States, and wouldn't you know it, some of us use 
international date time here. Whoa! But there is no way (in GNOME) to 
set the United States locale while using international date time. And 
yes the United States is still on the Imperial measurement system, but 
many professionals (e.g., scientists) use the Metric system in the 
United States. Yet we cannot set these when using GNOME. If I change the 
format (in GNOME) and switch to a locale that does use international 
date time, I then get currency, paper format, numeric, etc that do not 
conform to the USA.
