 https://nl.wordpress.org/about/history/ and we, as the Dutch team,
 would've considered this a blocker. Not even mentioning that fact of
 having English pages automatically published before they're translated.

 This isn't something we'll wait for core on, but it wasn't something that
 was going to be remotely done before launching these, and honestly may not
 be implemented in the short-term either.

 Discussion and implementation details should be kept to #3507.
