I have run into this myself, and a patch that I contributed (which made it
in to 8.3) made it possible for a database owner to create trusted
languages from templates in the default configuration. Which means that
if an admin wants to prevent usage of the language, they can revoke the
right to create it, but db owners still "opt-in" to any languages they
want.
