I have talked with seb128 and jbicha on IRC about my proposed fix of this bug, and they let me know that there is a wish as regards GNOME Remix (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/ReleaseNotes/12.10Beta) to replace "Language Support" in System Settings with the upstream "Region and Language" capplet. As a measure when considering that possibility I prepared two special variants of the gnome-control-center and gnome-settings-daemon packages, which are available in my PPA at https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/misc

If you install those special variants, you can test how "Region and Language" currently works on a standard Ubuntu 12.10 installation. I assume that the behavior would be the same on a GNOME Remix installation.

The reason why I mention the above in this bug comment is to show that there is a need to include (at least) modified g-c-c and g-s-d packages in the GNOME Remix distribution if you want to exchange "Language Support" for "Region and Language". Consequently, irrespective of which route the people involved in GNOME Remix take, GNOME Remix shouldn't reasonably need to block the proposed solution of this bug.
