Yes, this will be still helpful to us in the long term.

Can we have just one step for setting the locale and reference the value from the matrix as an env variable? If not directly, turn the context into a env variable first and then access it? Like this?

      - name: Set locale
        env:
          OVERRIDE_LOCALE: '${{ matrix.config.locale }}'
        run: echo $OVERRIDE_LOCALE >> $GITHUB_ENV

The solutions to DRYing this up was leading to more complicate code, so I am going to retain the more readable individual steps for now.
