Do you mean installing them within GUI after installing the system? Do you
think that implementing this feature would make your need of having the
langpaks on the installation media unnecessary? Do GUI package managers
present copms groups? We could wrap a langpack RPM package into a group or an
environment.

With this premise there is no other way then placing the packages on the
installation medium.
If having all langpacks on the media is too expensive (people usually install
only few languages), maybe we could append the required langpacks onto
the installation media with the installation media writer (or how the piece of
software which downloads ISO and writes on a USB mass storage device is
called).
This is an interesting idea! :)
A few things would have to be addressed:
- UI for selecting the language/langpacks (it could be taken from the system running Media Wrtier, but
that might not always have the intended language of the Fedora installation)
- need to update the message checksum after modifying the image so that the built-in checksum still works
- compatibility of image handling tooling across all platforms supported by Media Writer
