There is fr_BE, fr_fr etc for such cases? If carrying multiple

of just the tags as merkaartortags_XX_XX.qm and leave the main program
translations in merkaartor_XX.qm

Well, they still see the english name in the tag list just below the
combobox?

Isn't the point of a default so to set it for the inexperienced user and
have a preset for the experienced ones? I must admit I am slightly
leaning towards translating it by default.
