[Evergreen-general] Adding a language to the translation feature in the web client

[Linda Jansová]

Hi Jane,

Thank you! But it seems you mean the locale switcher in the upper right 
corner of the web client. I have actually had another translation 
dropdown on my mind - the one which enables you to add a new translation 
from within the web client. I have attached a screenshot with an example 
from Item Status Administration in Server Administration.

I have double checked that Czech does not appear in the dropdown even 
when the web client as such is switched to English (in a way, it would 
make sense that you might want to translate to another language, not the 
one you are currently viewing the web client in; on the other hand, it 
is rather likely that you may wish to add a missing translation for the 
current language - it would also be clear which strings are missing and 
how the context is translated to make sure the translation is a good fit 
for a particular place in the web client). So the only translation 
option seems to be English, regardless of the interface language...
