language-selector does support this functionality already, including
qt-language-selector, since it calls the same function like its gnome
counterpart. If kdelibs5-data is installed, it should pull kde-l10n-*
packages, next to the language-pack-kde-* packages. If it doesn't work
for whatever reason, then it's a bug.
