Yup.  But, the question is not whether it is easy to do, or not.  If 
implimented, would it be an acceptable temporary solution?  (I would 
impliment it, even if it needs to be on an OS by OS basis).

I would like to note that this problem really only affects people in 
non-English speaking countries.  And, one of GnuCash's strongest 
"selling" points is our international support (currencies, translations, 
etc).
