Good web page, thanks!

Qt provides enum values for many more languages than can actually be 
used for locales; at any rate, it seems to default back to the system 
default locale in all cases where QLocale::countriesForLanguage() 
returns an empty list (including Yiddish). The day and month names in 
languages with multiple script possibilities are also usually rendered 
by the Qt locale functions using the scripts/fonts which are most likely 
to be installed in the OS (e.g. Latin fonts). And that is all I need 
this for anyway. I can live with that switch statement!
