Probably a good idea. With those, we don't really need specific
questions about locale, right?

And those fields would definitly have to be made optional, I think. But
just adding two optional fields:

Output from pg_config:
Output from pg_controldata:

should do a lot. With that, we could even remove the version field if we
wanted to - but do we? Might be good to keep it in case ppl have a
question that doesn't need/want pg_config/pg_controldata.
