Description
The ordering of the language selector in options-general.php is based off the locale, but the visual (and quick-access by typing) entries are using the languages native name.
Would it not make more sense to order by the native name here, I don't think I know of any other language selector that isn't alphabetically ordered by the visual element of it?

Replying to Clorith:

Article language selection in Wikipedia appears to be ordered by locale too rather than native name.
