I'd rather see a single column summarizing the locale situation.
Perhaps it could be COALESCE(daticulocale, datcollate), or
something using a CASE on datlocprovider?
Then \l+ could replace that with all the underlying columns.

I think it's confusing if the + and non-+ versions of a command
present their columns in inconsistent orders.  I'm not dead set
against this, but -0.5 or so.
