**Problem**: In the current state, the user's discovered language
preference is only returned when found in `settings.LANGUAGES`. That's
more than sufficient for the normal translation routine, but there seems
to be no way (at least no DRY way) to find out a user's locale preference
REGARDLESS of `settings.LANGUAGES`.
**Suggestion**: It would be nice to have an easy way for finding out a
languange preference from request, even if it's not listed in your
supported languages. You could think of an optional flag, so that the
preference from `get_language_from_request` is checked against `LANG_INFO`
in the translation module rather than only against `settings.LANGUAGES`.
This would give you a locale from all languages that are available in the
translation module. You could use that e.g. for comparing with
`settings.LANGUAGE_CODE` and add a fallback for specific cases.
