I agree: this would be very useful specially for non-US users. But
instead of modifying .cshrc, .profile, etc. for each account, I think
that adding the capabilities
lang=xx_YY.ISO_8859-ZZ:\
charset=ISO_8859-ZZ:
to the "default" entry in /etc/login.conf (or maybe to the "me" entry
in .login_conf for each account) would be a better approach. But I
would left this improvement for 4.1-RELEASE :)
