Well, I have a Russian user of fpGUI. He noted quite a few issues with FPC's locale variables and Russian language. We had to implement our own > 1 byte locale variables and create custom formatting strings to use those instead of FPC's ones. MSEgui had to do the exact same thing. A lot of effort, plus you need to notify the toolkit users to use the toolkit specific formatting functions, instead of the standard RTL ones.
