The installer asks you to locate your time-zone. Couldn't you use this as a trigger for including the US patent encumbered stuff for non US citizens.
Oh and could this be used for setting my paper preference to A4 by default instead of having to change this each time I set up a printer?
Doesn't LC_PAPER cover this?
If apps respected it. locale|grep PAPER LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8 ← should not be letter
So many apps hardcode letter by default and revert to it at the slightest excuse it's not even remotely funny. (another favorite is if you press print in the app before powering on your printer, the system will remember the printer was stopped and you have to go into system-config-printer to restart the print queue)
