There is nothing to object at this time. This change in its current form 
was announced and discussed very long ago, when new naming scheme was 
introduced for the first time. Few years of transition period (now ended) 
are enough for users to put correct value to the LANG variable. What you 
suggest is just another transition period, it is superfluous.

UPDATING note submitted today, HEADSUP was anounced few years ago.
