Customization... / #4209

I thought a while about the problem of customized date form versus translation. Maybe we could do it this way:

Currently we get the dateformat by the wrapper function getUserFormatDate() which returns at string like __('%b %e, %Y', 'strftime format string') which is been translated. This string could actually by a configuration variable that could also be overwritten in the customize.inc.php file.

: any progress on the locale replacing date function?
