Several suggestions were made to -boot or in installaiton reports so that
the main menu entry should be translated also.
However, keeping english is mandatory so that people mistakenly choosing a
language they don't read or understand may still go back to english.
I propose to make the menu entry translatable, but ask translators to keep
the english part for it. Example for french:
Choisir la langue/Choose language
(I propose to use "/" as separator just for saving room.
The attached patch makes this modification (but needs debconf-updatepo to be
run after applying it)
