Comment (by netweb):

 What about the [http://make.wordpress.org/core/2014/05/21
 /internationalization-goals-for-4-0/ Internationalization goals for 4.0]?

 Relevant snips from the above post: (emphasis mine)
 > 3) "'''You should be able to search from the dashboard for plugins'''
 and themes that are available in your language."''
 >> With language packs (more on that soon), plugins and themes will be
 able to be translated into any language. The goal would then be to have
 “localized” plugin and theme directories on the translated WordPress.org
 sites, listing just the plugins or themes available in their language.
 Note that even a plugin or theme without strings have a name and
 description that can be translated.
 >>
 >> '''The plugin and theme install screens in the dashboard should
 similarly gain this ability. In all cases, there would be an option to
 expand the search to plugins/themes available in any language, of course —
 along with the invitation to translate them.'''

 > Core work:
 >> "'''Support searching for plugins/themes in a particular language''',
 as well as leveraging translated data fields that come through from the
 API response. This mostly just means sending back the site’s language to
 WordPress.org. '''It also requires UI to reveal results from any
 languages.''' We could possibly filter/hide/show on the client side, if
 results were not paginated."

 And from [http://make.wordpress.org/core/2014/07/02/internationalization-
 project-updates/ Internationalization project updates] (emphasis mine)

 > 3) '''You should be able to search from the dashboard for plugins''' and
 themes that are available in your language.
 >> This is handled on the WordPress.org side. '''The updated plugins
 screen will need to pass a new argument to filter by language, and then
 remove that argument if the user requests showing plugins in any
 language.''' We’ll need to hack in readme/description translation support
 but that’s a small API change and otherwise WordPress.org work, not core
 work.
