Description GrafxUser 2012-05-28 10:18:01 UTC 
How to reproduce:
1. open Edit/Preferences/Interface
2. click on the language selector

This should happen:
All languages are shown with their own native name.
Alternatively the native name could supplement or replace the ISO country code in the brackets.

This happens:
The languages are shown with their name of the current language setting. 

From a users point of view, who's not speaker of the selected language, it would be easier to switch to his native language, even if he/she's in panic by having disguised the language setting accidently.
