I understand what you have said, but it's quite hard for a none expert, none English user to install the input method themselves under English locale. Imagine you are running the LiveCD of a distribution whose default language is Chinese, how can you figure out the way to install English language support by yourself?  After a glance at those unfamiliar characters, I think you will probably restart your computer, eject the LiveCD and never try that distribution or even Linux ever again.

What I think it will be great is that we can have an offical localized LiveCD at least for CJK users, not the way to solve those localize problem in the LiveCD session we already have now.
