I'd also like to point out how ambiguous and ineffective this method is. From a logical point of view, when I think of changing something to my calendar, I look into its settings. Simple as that.

I've tried your option right now. It does what you say, but not exactly how it should. It also modifies the language in which the days are shown in the calendar, even though English still remains everywhere else throughout the system. Why the hell changing the regional settings also changes some language setting ? When I say this method is TOTALLY wrong, I know why I'm saying it.

Look at Android. They finally got to their senses and added a nice little option in the Calendar Settings for "Week starts on:" with the options: "Locale default (!!), Saturday, Sunday, Monday." Is it that hard ? Simple, logical, effective. The current method is totally inefficient. I mean, if even a developer starts scratching their head looking for this option, then this should tell you that something is wrong.
