Comment (by cvedovini):

 Replying to [comment:48 ocean90]:
 > A translatable string doesn't seem to be the right way for this as it
 doesn't cover all use cases. Example: I speak English, Spanish and German.
 If German isn't available I'd like to have it fall back to Spanish. A
 translation team would probably never specify this. It needs to be a user
 choice IMO.

 I agree and I think this particular use-case should be handled with a
 plugin.
