Comment (by nacin):

 Replying to [comment:74 Chouby]:
 > In wp_get_installed_translations, the regex [A-Za-z_]{2,6} for detecting
 the locale seems a bit restrictive. In my plugin dev, I encountered an
 issue with this rule with German for which two languages packs are
 distributed: de_DE as standard and de_DE_Sie for the formal language. See
 http://wpde.org/download/sprachdateien/ . I am not aware of any other
 exception.

 As far as I can tell, this is extremely wrong. However, we could
 potentially drop the `6` there, and just match anything. As long as they
 are only using underscores as delimiters, we should be okay, as a domain
 that matches a WP.org plugin or theme slug (and ideally any plugin or
 theme) will always use hyphens.
