I think, our goal is to translated the web UI.
The log messages are not included.
Completely translating all the strings displayed in the web UI should be
regarded
as 100% translation.
If all the three resources will be displayed in web UI, all of them should
be included.

I prefer to remove.
I'd like to hear others opinion.
Will users use partly translated dashboard?
If users won't use, I think there is no concerns to remove uncompleted
translation.

I prefer to list the languages Horizon supports, i.e. those languages whose
po/mo files packaged with Horizon.
But the list should be easily added or customized.
If some people want to provide their own language version after Havana
release, they can easily change the language list,
add their po files and mo files. They don't need to depend on the formal
release.
