Agreed in principle. The thing that's actually a bit shaky here is

I dunno that we need to set up a permanent buildfarm member for this.
I had been thinking in terms of testing every available locale on my
own machines before pushing, but given that the code is pretty static,
do we need to do that repetitively?
