I wouldn't mind so much it coming with them all, and checking on them
after a Firefox update, but why does it have to have them all enabled
all the time?

If you got asked, once, what languages can you read, and *that* enabled
the right ones, disabled the rest (and in a disabled state they didn't
bog down your computer), and *it* would also properly set the HTTP
content accept headers, that'd be a good thing.

It'd be a good thing, all-round, for avoiding HTTP 406 errors, and
stupid websites asking you to click on a flag, if the first use of a
browser asked the user what languages they could read, and preferred.
