Comment (by swissspidy):

 Oh, and regarding

 > * `get_available_languages()` returns only core languages, something to
 keep in mind.

 One shouldn't be able to switch to a non-existent locale. Are there many
 situations where a core language isn't available but a plugin has a
 translation for it? Shouldn't happen with language packs I think.
