the script supports setting the title/source/address/revision/date fields
in the desc.  i'm on the fence whether we want to blow existing metadata
and just use the cldr.  e.g.

--- a/localedata/locales/en_US
+++ b/localedata/locales/en_US
@@ -5,16 +5,16 @@ comment_char %

then it would be obvious what version of CLDR was used to update the
locale.  the downside is that the file isn't 100% sourced from CLDR,
so it seems like clobbering all the fields is wrong ?

maybe set source to a string like:
source "Mostly based on Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR)"
