To put it in perspective, if we split out 'langpacks' for apps per language,
something like gedit then grows *100* new subpackages.

It's a shame we can't store .mo files compressed. The ratio seems quite good:

[root@phanto ~]# cd /usr/share
[root@phanto share]# cp -r locale locale-compressed
[root@phanto share]# find locale-compressed -type f -name '*.mo' -exec bzip2 --best {} \;
[root@phanto share]# du -sh locale locale-compressed
657M	locale
245M	locale-compressed

(NB this isn't a newly installed system.)
