"ASCII" is an alias for "English". We could filter it out when the
completion produces a list of known languages, but isn't it possible
that someone who is not a native English speaker will find that alias
useful? After all, we have that alias for a reason, right?

This would be a lie, since _all_ the languages are listed, not only
languages other than the current one (the one set by the language
environment).
