+`po_disabled_languages` is used to disable languages on the website. It
+can be used to prepare new translations, while it will hide those from
+the end-user. More precisely, PO files for these languages are updated
+normally, however, HTML creation will be disabled and no reference to
+these translations will be visible on the website.
+
+See also downstream bug report in tails: <https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/15355>

+> From the downstream bug report it appears this branch is not yet
+> considered ready (as of February 2019), so I haven't attempted to

+> As with everything else in the `po` plugin: I would really want to see
+> some regression test coverage before merging this, because as far as I'm
+> aware none of the ikiwiki maintainers use the `po` plugin, so we are
+> not able to detect regressions other than via the automated tests. That
+> isn't a good situation to be in for a plugin that uses `IkiWiki::inject`
+> to monkey-patch ikiwiki internals. If this plugin is important to you,
+> more test coverage would be very much appreciated.

-In order to be able to prepare more translations before publishing them, it is a good a idea to have disabled languages.
-Currently there are some small issues that need to cleanup before beeing able to push it into ikiwiki.
+>> I've put this branch into a shape that I now dare submitting:
+>> https://salsa.debian.org/tails-team/ikiwiki/tree/feature/15355-po-plugin-disable-languages.
+>> It adds a little bit test coverage in the form of integration tests
+>> for the proposed feature, that incidentally exercise the rest of the
+>> basic functionality of the PO plugin.
+>> Credits go to hefee for the initial work; I merely did a lot of polishing.
+>> Happy to squash all this into a single commit if you prefer.

+>>> Please let me know if the added test coverage is sufficient to unblock
