I'm pretty sure someone already made a sed script to change localisation from
en_US to en_GB, though I don't know where to search for it.

Basically, I think we could get a correct en_GB locale using scripts such as:
s/localization/localisation/
s/color/colour/
s/center/centre/
and so on...

BTW, I think we tend to inconsistently use en_US and en_GB spellings, since
most of the time our tools are written by non native English speakers. We could
then also use a script to correct en_US localisation with the same script as
above in reverse. We could then run en -> en_US on the default strings, and en
-> en_GB for the en_GB locale.
