Comment (by bitigchi):

 waddlesplash, thanks for taking a look at this. It looks all okay, and
 seems to be working fine. Aside from that, the Defaults button got me
 thinking about this specific preflet; we ask the user to select a language
 whilst starting the install, right? Therefore the language that is
 selected should be accounted as the "Default" language. Currently it
 defaults to English, which only happens to be the default language for the
 system image, not the users. And this affects the currency, time formats
 as well, which is kind of frustrating to correct them. If pressed by
 mistake, everything goes to pre-install settings!

 How to address this issue?
 - Maybe remove the Defaults button altogether? Just keep the Revert button
 in case user changes the value to something different?
