Doh. Somehow I managed to miss that, because I was prejudiced after
reading the Finnish localization of BY-SA *1.0*. I'm embarrassed.
Interesting, though, that the choice of localization or updated license
only applies to derivative works--not verbatim copies. So if someone
licenses graphics (or other language-independent works) under an exotic
localization, you'd have to make some changes to the graphics in order
to switch the license to something that can be read by the people you
supply the graphics to.
