Comment (by nbachiyski):

 Locales standards are strange and we don't always follow them. That's why
 trying to automatically fix locale names will fail in many of the cases.

 If we want to fix the problem with Dutch we should just add a specific
 exception replacing {{{nl}}} with {{{nl_NL}}}. In addition to that we
 should show users a notification to ask them change the locale in their
 {{{wp-config.php}}}.
