I have no objections as long as nothing gets broken and the code doesn't
get more complicated (less readable).  LOCALE_IO exists in all of the
plugins not just the kicad plugin so there is a lot of code to fix.  The
reason LOCALE_IO exists is to hide resetting the locale on exceptions.
I don't see how any other solution is going to result in cleaner code
but I'm willing to entertain the idea.  Please test your changes
thoroughly and submit a patch so we can test it and take a look at it
before committing.
