using Mercurial, because the most useful information are described in
wiki [1], and most of them are written in English. Some convention
will become ambiguous if you *FORCE* translate to SC or TC.

I know I can always do that to work around. But as I said before: It's
always good to do appropriate things.
Please consider this: One user lived in Taiwan starts to use
Mercurial, and he do not like the zh_TW.po translation. Instead, he
would like to see English interface without affecting his locale
settings. Here are some common suggestions after he googled:
1. Use "LC_ALL=c hg" instead.
2. Write a wrapper.
3. Delete the zh_TW.po.
3 is the easiest way to achieve this, so he decides to delete the
file. But it supprises him if zh.po still exist, because Mercuail
inteface becomes to SC instead English he expected.

Thanks for your information, but why zh_CN, zh_TW, zh_HK exist has its
historical reason, and since I don't see any Distro has a roadmap to
follow this rfc, I still think it's better to rename zh.po to
zh_CN.po. There's no distinction for SC users , but it a little
effects TC users who want to use English interface (although it's not
usually happend).
I apologize for your inconvenient. :(
