--- Comment #1 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
This proposal conflicts with the ALTMON proposal (bug 10871). Some locales
currently use "%d of %B" as the date format (with a language-specific genitive
indicator instead of “of”), but they would switch to "%d %B" (or perhaps "%d
%OB") to support elision in the genitive indicator. Applying titlecase
conversion to the ALTMON string would likely not give expected results.
