IIRC the name/description of the default language can't be changed, it's 
pretty 'hardcoded' in many places. I posted about this a long time ago, but 
that didn't really give a good solution.

That's where the good idea's start ;)

Flag icon? If you mean the thing in indexed_search, you'll have to manually 
patch the php-file, or 'swap' the filenames of the icons. Maybe it's also 
possible to override the language-labels via TS?

> PPS: If there's no way - how about forcing a default record with id 0?

Something like this was an idea of mine too back then, but the 
sys_language-table has an auto-increment on the ID, so you can't really 
store a record with ID 0 in it...

Grtz,
