Indeed, selecting France as country code and having english instead of french
as suggested user locale is rather improbable.

(because CD access time).

It could be possible to preload every possible combinations of country codes
and locales. But that may pull down boot time.
The other solution would be to allow to enter manually the Country code and
locale without using the unwrap menu.

But until end-users locale and country are set in bios or wherever, this
problem is likely to stay. Unless using a custom LiveCD image of course, but
the purpose would be to keep the official LiveCD Desktop image and work on
improving end-users experiences on non-default options usage.
