@Evi1M4chine no worries. I've switched to i3 long time ago and now am a happy man.

@Sevastyan: I forgot this stuff, but presumably, as a general idea for these things, you can run python3 cldr2qlocalexml.py as a command and pass it a XML file from that CLDR collection, to obtain a qlocale_data_p.h. How the passing and obtaining is done, can probably be seen in that .py file. (As parameters or by piping usually.) Maybe there is a --helpto find out the easy way. … Sorry, I just came back here after a long time out of curiosity.

@theferrit32: You can use any other widget of your choice though. (I don’t know if there is a widget that allows using the output of arbitrary commands, or maybe a HTML file with embedded arbitrary commands. Because what’s wrong with date?) … But yeah, I’m currently writing my own Linux-based OS (building on Plan9 ideas), so … :)

It is absurd that KDE and GNOME use hardcoded date format options, or don't at least include an ISO-8601 or RFC-3339 compliant hardcoded option. Both XFCE and Tint2 panels allow arbitrary strftime strings (like in date command). Honestly the simple fact that XFCE lets me display time in an arbitrary format is a huge advantage to me, because the GNOME time widget is awful to look at, and while KDE allows for more detail it doesn't comply with standards.
