So, it seems to me that the localisations available for a loadable bundle depend on the localisations available in the loading application.

Now, this isn't really a problem for me (before shipping, I'll be localising everything) and I only noticed because I localised at the lowest level first, but I'd be interested to know if this is how it's supposed to work. It seems rather bizarre, to say the least.

Yes, this is correct behavior. Otherwise an application might use content from multiple sources with multiple localizations--for example, an English-only app might take half of its content from the Japanese version of AppKit installed on the system. For some applications that might be acceptable, but in most cases it would not be desirable, and some applications simply could not handle it. You can simply add an appropriate .lproj to your application, or for unbundled applications use the CFBundleLocalizations key.
