Please describe the problem:
The calender of the clock applet is closely bind to Evolution due to showing events, appointments, tasks etc.

However, I consider it "broken" regarding the "Week starts on" setting of Evolution which should also be "synced" considering the above.

After investigating to create a patch I noticed it is showing this behaviour due to the GtkCalender adjusting this particular feature according to the set locale.

Unfortunately, as noted before this breaks with the Evolution settings and furthermore it should be possible for people to use a specific language but a different start of week setting.

In my case I have an English locale and messages, however prefer due to living in Germany. There are various other bugs of people with similar requests from other countries.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Pick English locale
2. Clock Applet Calendar starts with Sunday
3. Alter Evolution "Week starts on" setting to Monday
4. View Clock Applet Calender


Actual results:
Still the week starts on Sunday.

Expected results:
The week starts on Monday if set in Evolution.
OR
The week starts on Sunday according to the locale if no Evolution setting available.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
I know this is related to GtkCalendar, which I think requires an extension of the set_options stuff to be able to specify/override the setting, although I thought to start at the top of the stack and go down with bug dependencies then.

Perhaps there is a solution for this already I am not aware of.
