Public bug reported:

It would be nice if it were possible to add support to a new language/locale by just installing a click package.
This would have several benefits:
1) People could easily add support for non officially supported languages
2) Languages would be updated independently from the system image
3) Some space could be freed from the image, if some languages get moved to click packages

I'm entering this bug against ubuntu-ui-toolkit, because I guess it
would need some change to get the correct path where translations are
installed (it now calls bindtextdomain with /usr/share/locale, while it
should fallback to ~/.local/share/locale/ if the language does not exist
in the system path), but there surely are other projects that would need
to be changed.

For sure, we would need a click hook to move the translations in
~/.local/share/locale/, as well as changes to the apparmor policy to
read from that directory.
