Gunnar and I have been working on a solution to this issue, based on Aders and Hans comments above and what gnome help does, and think we have something very practical and useful. It is now available for testing on help.ubuntu.com, in the development area, and only for the desktop help docs, so far. So here:

However, for virtually any technical documentation, English is the lingua franca on the web. It is an incredible nuisance to look up technical details in Dutch. I appreciate the effort to make help.ubuntu.com accessible in all languages, however it is a TERRIBLE idea (and quite frankly, since the content is available in English, but I can't access it, I classify it as a bug) to prevent people from changing the language they read it in. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS I expect to be able to read online help files in English. Instead, I am forced to read them in Dutch.
