Summary:
Add setlocale
Detailed Description:
Add setlocale like setlocale(LC_ALL, array('en_US.UTF-8','en_US','english')); to
override default text strings like date, time, decimals based on language.

This could either be part of {MleCMS action='init' or add new variable like
{$lang_setlocale}

Wow, this was fast :-)
Tested it and $lang_direction is great, with set_locale there is one problem as
not all server are setup the same, means that for example a french server
usually has fr_FR where Belgian could have fr_BE (had that issue recently) then
fr_FR setting wouldn't work.
Or for example on my dev environment (Apache/2.2.11 (Win32) PHP/5.3.0) it_IT
doesn't take effect where "italian" does, my suggestion would be a extra input
box where user can enter comma separated list for each language like.
Locale Input: de_DE.UTF8,de_DE,german or maybe there is some ready made script
available somewhere with a list of available options.
From my research i found out that in worst case mostly english string for
language works like mentioned above "italian" (with a problem that month names
are returned in lower case)

Not realy a FR now but in theory just from user experience view maybe a dropdown
that generates available list with system('locale -a'); would be nice or maybe
add it to Help section so a user can check that with a UDT, allthough there are
then those Windows server :-) no idea how to get a list there.
