Players' locales in the default statistics?

[AmauryCarrade]

Hi,

I'm authoring some plugins and using bStats to grab some statistics on them. And it works great! Many thanks for the work you put in this :)

This being said, I think an additional piece of statistics could be useful for most plugins: the locale of the players. It's quite easy to retrieve the clients' locale (here on Bukkit implementations, but as the locale is in a field in the NMS Player, that would be pretty easy on other servers as well), and for translated plugins, that's a really useful piece of information, to know what are the players' tongue and where to put translations efforts.

Of course, we already have the servers' locations, but that's not the same: there's a lot of big servers hosted on a country other than its players, and you have the same bias if a provider in a close country is cheap (like some French servers providers).

If you don't think this is a good idea, I'll simply use a custom graph, easy; but I think such a feature could be useful for most plugins&mods :).

Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

Hey,
thank you for the suggestion.
I really like it and will look into it!

Hey, this is an amazing idea! I use bStats on my plugins (it is just amazing), and it would rock to know what real language the server use (as majority of hosts are in some numbered countries)

Would love to see this, could help decide which languages to translate plugins to!
