agree to change the behavior so that the collation for newly created databases
matches the respective OOo option, not the system locale.

As for patching HSQLDB code to accept more locales: I really do not know why we
initially decided to have those prose names for the languages, this is
completely weird from my today's point of view.
IMO, the SET COLLATION behavior should be extended so that it accepts the
current prose names for compatibility only, and otherwise is simply based on
locales, e.g. SET DATABASE COLLATION fr-CA. Also, the driver on OOo side should
generate such a locale-based statement.
Then, the patch/es should be contributed to both the HSQLDB project and OOo, to
include it in upcoming releases of both products. Probably, when micro updates
of older versions of OOo appear (such as 2.4.x), we should also include those
patches there, to ensure those older versions can read .odbs created with newer
versions.
