I'd say a+b, with a) selectable by classical LC_* or LANG variables and |
| 23 |
b) selectable by some interface probably. |

that's what is done for texlive: LINGUAS pulls related packages that |
| 26 |
install localized docs when applicable but also give you support for |
| 27 |
hyphenations & co; however, no default is changed and you still have to |
| 28 |
ask for babel to get proper hyphenations when compiling your .tex. |
