[wp-polyglots] 2.7 is coming

[Ran Yaniv Hartstein]

I have two suggestions:

First, to help English-speaking users deal with a message in a language they
don't understand, a small "?" button can be added after the message, with an
English note explaining why it was displayed. (The current message can
actually be even more confusing)

Second, the sentence can be added to the same rosetta.po file we use for
translating the locale sites, and if a translation isn't available it will
revert back to English.
