The lightdm solution I propose makes the temporary guest account's real
name translated to begin with, i.e. it's the translation of "Guest" that
will be saved in the /etc/passwd entry. This should do it in most cases.

However..

If you customize the guest session feature in such a way that a guest
session is started with some other language but the system wide language
in /etc/default/locale, there will be a mix of languages in the logout
dialog. This disadvantage could be avoided if this bug was fixed in
Unity instead.

OTOH I suppose it's good to not spread guest session related hacks all
over.

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  Login on a guest session
  Click on logout from guest session

  Result:

  There is a dialog, asking whether you're sure to log out. "Auf
  Wiedersehen, Guest. Sind Sie sicher, dass sie alle Programme schließen
  und sich von Ihrem Konto abmelden möchten?"

  In this string "Guest" is not translated to "Gast".
