I don't thin blaming the GNU locale system is right:

⟫ locale
LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=pl:en
LC_CTYPE="pl_PL.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_TIME=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="pl_PL.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="pl_PL.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_NAME=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_ALL=

For each of those we could provide a setting separate to the language selected. Case in point, using Qt.formatTime():

⟫ qmlscene test.qml
qml: 14:02
⟫ LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 qmlscene test.qml
qml: 2:03 PM

Granted, the "en_US" part should probably be "12hour" instead, but I believe this should be doable just fine.
