<upd_detl>I agree. よかろう may well be a useful expression to include, but the WWW is full of references to a cheap-eat chain called よかろうもん (よかろう門) so some work will be needed on it.</upd_detl>

<upd_refs>博多弁辞典 (weblio)

https://fanfunfukuoka.nishinippon.co.jp/89120
徐々に使われなくなっている博多弁の中でも、今やすっかり聞かれなくなった（言わなくなった）のが「よかろうもん」という言葉。 標準語で言うと「いいだろ」「いいんじゃないか」というような、相手に同意を求めるようなシーンで使われます。</upd_refs>
