My worry is that there are programs written that support the BALTIC character
set but don't run correctly in full UTF-8. Offering the alternative lv_LV@euro
(using UTF-8) allows a distribution to default to lv_LV@euro with users using
lv_LV to run older programs that don't fully work with UTF-8?
Does that make sense?
