I think in this case the project owner is the one to object, but it's an 
issue that should be under the translation group's control.

There is no development effort involved.  Just a matter of creating an 
empty do-not-translate team, and setting it as the translator for 
unwanted languages in the Launchpad translation group: en_CA, es_NI, and 
so on.  That is massively easier than development work.
