Hi, in fact no, we had the country in this list localized but decided it 
was not a good idea. Languages must be proposed untranslated. You always 
know how to read the name of the language you want to select. But you 
may not know how to read it when translated in another language.

What is important to me is to have to do this in a single location. Why 
not just maintaining the list in DialogConfig.qml as it is. I just 
pushed a commit to have the locale list up front in the file, it is 
easier to maintain.
