That makes the UI code unnecessarily complicated.  In
addition, in that way, C-h L (describe-language-environment)
doesn't work.

I think it is simpler to make the UI allows a user to
customize the variable `language-info-alist' by modifying
the existing slot or by adding a new slot to
language-info-alist.
