Hehe, oh well, that's another browser quirk, but a much less serious so. 
I use language negotation too, so what everybody _should_ do is go into 
their settings and make sure they enable all languages they know how to 
read... Check out http://www.debian.org/intro/cn for a howto... 
Lacking that, browser vendors should add an *;q=0.001 to their language 
strings to avoid this error, but that's a lot more IMHO than the other 
things I've written in this thread... :-) 

I'd tried to talk the Mozilla folks into that in Bug 55800, 
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55800 and the fact that 
you're getting 406 is proof that they are wrong... :-)
Anyway, I've been logging language settings for a long time on one of my 
sites, and it was in fact very few users who had browsers were it would 
break, and language negotation is quite cool, so I decided to use it. 
Besides, those users who have it wrong could be catered for with a good 
error handler, if I had bothered... :-) 

Thanks for checking! :-)

Best,

Kjetil
