Thinking about it, I realize that also the basic support for other languages
is optional -- my Debian system has lots of "texlive-language-*" packages.
I don't think we should completely disable using a language that is not
properly supported, but a warning would be in place.
How would this be possible. We would then have to check if the ldf-file exists. But this can exists
anywhere and we don't have access to the LaTeX-file database. This warning only makes sense for
babel, not for polyglossia.
So, maybe for the time being it could be better to just exclude Kazakh from
the "Cyrillic languages" to let the "textcyr" feature work.
Sounds reasonable but I don't know enough if this could have
side-effects.
Today I asked the Kazakh colleague and he told me that nobody yet uses Latin script for Kazakh.
There had been some attempts by the government but without success. So we can treat Kazakh as
Cyrillic language.
Yes, Kazakh seems only supported with Polyglossia and should be marked as
unsupported with Babel.
But Kazakh is not supported by polyglossia. I already marked Kazakh as unsupported by babel _and_
polyglossia.
Some test revealed, that the "textcyr" and "textgreek" features do not
consider the current language.
I see now but I am not familiar with this code part of LyX. Perhaps Enrico can state about this. I
CCed him in your bug report.

However, what do you think about supporting Friulan?
