Comment (by nacin):

 What I want to know is why "Sunday" isn't the default in the en_US build.
 This is only used in core for the Calendar widget, and I cannot recall
 ever seeing a calendar in the U.S. that starts on a Monday. Yes, ISO sets
 Monday to be the first day of the week. Anyway.

 Your "locale" isn't just about language; it's also about time and date
 formatting and also your timezone. Ideally, even if options exist for
 them, we cover these things harmoniously and set smart defaults. I'm not
 sure we can remove this for 4.0, but what I'd like to see is a new
 "Locale" section on General Settings that groups timezone, date/time/week,
 and language, which are already together. That at least helps this seem
 not as extraneous.
