It does not. The installer uses debconf/po-debconf for translations
so, whenever a translation for a given udeb is incomplete, the
relevant debconf templates file does not include the translation of
the given templates in the said language.

As debconf templates belong to each individual package, likely to be
laoded during the install process, at various moments (depending on
the package), there is no moment during the install process where one
can say: this language is complete and that one is incomplete.
