It's understandable that we cannot fit full support for every language into the Workstation live ISO, but we should have a mechanism that will download all necessary packages after system installation. Something that does the same job as 'dnf langinstall'. The problem with dnf-langpacks is that it's not installed by default and it's a pretty bad user experience if you require the user to go to the terminal to get what they ultimately want: a fully localized system. IMHO it's something that should be done automatically.
