Well, there are languages we would support fine that don't have a
specific language-support group (most anything that uses a Latin-1 like
charset, and no specific input method.) Moreover, the groups that are
installed aren't actually recorded anywhere on the installed system.
(And having gdm attempt to discover/compute what groups are installed
is completely impractical.)
