Well this IS a problem. Installing Ubuntu on computer w/o internet connectivity is pain just due to this bug and makes Ubuntu a system that I can't recommend to anybody who can't connect to internet. I can imagine two possible solutions: first is to split Ubuntu CD's to regional ones with complete language packs for subset of all supported languages (and people would have to pick languages in their shipit order) as second one Ubuntu can use DVD instead of CD, which could easily contain all language packs. Both have it's disadvantages, but IMO both are better in countries like mine, where broadband internet is expensive and majority of people can't understand English.
