 See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=467035.

 Works in Tor Browser and Firefox 67 (with a different dtd file as in the
 bugzilla PoC), probably also next ESR.

 Did not do a PoC but it would be easy to get a specific string in all
 locales, and just compare with value obtained via a hidden iframe that
 loads an xml with the translated string.
