Replying to [comment:13 Claude Paroz]:
> Improving documentation is welcome, but silently accepting a wrong
language code also look a bit suspicious. I think I would be happy with a
warning without coercing anything.
I agree. I think a warning would make sense, without coercion.
It is still possible to provide a locale to {{{makemessages}}} where there
are no actual message catalogs in any of the paths in
`settings.LOCALE_PATHS`.
We should probably scrap all the normalization stuff and just output a
warning message if a locale specified by the user is not in
{{{all_locales}}}.
At the moment we output a {{{"processing locale xx_XX"}}} message if
{{{verbosity > 0}}} which should be fixed to only happen for valid,
existing locales.
As an aside, this is checking {{{--locale}}} for {{{makemessages}}}, but
what about {{{compilemessages}}}? (And are their any others?)
