[Bug localedata/23140] More languages need two forms of month names


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23140

--- Comment #3 from Rafal Luzynski <digitalfreak at lingonborough dot com> ---
I absolutely agree.  This idea is already reflected in these bug reports:

* bug 21370: introduce a "convert to titlecase" flag;
* bug 15527: make the combination of existing flags "^#" work correctly and
convert to lowercase;
* optionally: specify that all locale data must be titlecased and convert them
to all uppercase/all lowercase only on an explicit demand.

Providing the upper/lowercase variant would be meant only as a workaround or a
temporary solution; also it is suggested by CLDR as a good use of the software
feature which is actually used by only a minority of languages.
