What does this PR do?
Like for hyprland/languages and niri/languages sway/languages can be configured for alternative languages and variant names:
Example:
This only works if
formatuses{}. I guess more work is required here, since all */languages plugins have different behavior. For the first approach I decided for the easiest solution. Maybe we should clarification the expected behavior and update the PR.I also think that the code of all */languages modules can be merged to a common code base and only the glue code for each desktop environment can be separate.
