Jeff,
Since you asked to be notified about the current status of hacks and features, I just wanted to let you know that I added the Italian and Croatian locales, fixed the Russian letter sort (for both Russian and Ukrainian) and rearranged the code around a bit in order to be able to support more of it (apparently the JS functions in Kinoma can only be up to certain number of characters long). Made it a little bit more modularized, too.
