Hmm, not sure this describes the change properly.  Maybe something like
"On Windows, system locales are now imported automatically.  Previously,
only ICU locales were imported automatically on Windows."

Maybe the Windows improvements should be listed together in a separate
section.

Also, "Juan José Santamaría Flecha" is the spelling Juan José uses for
his name.
