For OpenOffice, I have to install a separate language pack if I want i18n.

If we think that this is too much to ask of people, then I suggest that 
we have one default JOSM jar file which supports all languages (with 
roughly 5000 languages worldwide, this file would ultimately be 1 GB in 
size), and then create slimmed-down one-language-only jar files for the 
most popular languages.
