Is this the one hosted at http://gimp.lisanet.de/Website/Download.html, 
or ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.8/osx/gimp-2.8.4-nopython-dmg-1.dmg 
(probably not, as this one is described as "stock GIMP build without 
python or any add-ons")?

Or maybe a message that tells users where and how they can help to 
complete the translations? See also d)

Um... why? Then we would have to remove all links to all downloads 
because all of them contain translations that are not complete.

... strings for third-party plug-ins in the gnome repository?

I'd suggest

d) tell more plug-in authors about translations and how they can add them
