    When installing Illustrator (or ID, PS, …) in a specific language/region, only the corresponding keyboard shortcuts are installed. But not everyone working with en_GB als language also uses a keyboard with that layout.

    For example, I'm used to have my whole system set to English as interface language, but I use keyboards with Swiss German and Swiss French layouts. This makes more than half of the default shortcuts unusable and reassigning each an every shortcut every time a major revision is released is a major pain.

    The keyboard shortcuts are small text files, packing all languages with every install won't make a huge difference in size but a huge difference in convenience for everyone working with different languages.

    An alternative: put all keyboard shortcut presets up for download on the corresponding support page, that already offers cheat-sheet PDFs for every language.

    Thanks.
