Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the problem.

at the moment a lot of blazor apps are probably only published for a select few non english languages. however for them one can either use the invariant localization and than you would have no icu data at all or you can use the whole icu data there is no inbetween.

Describe the solution you'd like

it would be great that instead of having something like that:

https://learn.microsoft.com/aspnet/core/blazor/globalization-localization?view=aspnetcore-7.0&pivots=webassembly#invariant-globalization

One should be able to specify which locales to use, like de-de,en-us,en-gb and blazor would strip the data, so that it will be way smaller.

We also hope to implement the same functions outside of blazer, such as aspnetcore, because there is no need for globalization.

It is connected with https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/80421. The solution is not as described in the issue, as we do not produce the ICU package on the build but it provides a bit more flexibility. We should introduce it in Blazor as well.
