What I want is new abilities that can enhance browser based applications. E.g. think about calendar. Doing it in e.g. Delphi, I would ask OS to give me first week day. Doing it in browser, i would have to ask user. Format number into input? Why bother, type=number will do it for you, Format number into contenteditable.... Sure i can use CSS for presentation, input for inserting, JS libs for some other tasks... but actually having those information in raw form can give ability to perform task you simply cannot now (or you cannot do them exactly) i18n can tell you about generic settings what user might most likely have... It will tell you nothing about what user actually has. B.
