This could be a good idea. We surely don't want to notify users that an update is available if it isn't (in their language).
But if we manage to properly communicate in the dialog box that this is actually a call for volunteers (and write it in the corresponding language so that it cannot be misinterpreted) this could be a nice way to involve new people.
Based on the experience we had so far with teams, I would honestly wait that Pootle is available for all interested languages before we do this. Or at least we should see if we have a timeframe for a new Pootle setup that will maximize the likelihood to actually recruit new volunteers. Ideally, we should also have (unannounced) development builds available in the target languages to be able to point volunteers to them when they write.
