Well, there is another option to achieve the more than what this patch
does, in a more safe manner, although it is short-term only.

We can simply add the literal " [incomplete]" suffix to the strings in
language.cpp, and sort them manually to move the incomplete ones to
the end of the list.  We can even add some completion ratio or
anything we want to that string if we feel like it would help our
users to decide :)

Does that sound better ?
