I think above checks only ensures the technical (rather i18n) support 
exists. But, what about the native language desktop users who expects 
fedora to be equal for all languages (just like english)?

How about,

We only show a language in the language list if
- language-support is installed (e.g. yum groupinstall chinese-support)
