Well, there are languages we would support fine that don't have a specific language-support group (most anything that uses a Latin-1 like charset, and no specific input method.) Moreover, the groups that are installed aren't actually recorded anywhere on the installed system. (And having gdm attempt to discover/compute what groups are installed is completely impractical.)
The YumLangpackPlugin Feature that I am planning to propose for F12 may help with this providing langpack-support metapackages. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/YumLangpackPlugin
About the gdm menu itself I chatted to Ankit earlier in the week and came up with this rfe:

asking if we could have some gdm system config to control which languages appear by default in the menu.
