For LibreOffice however it is a strict requirement to have a valid BCP 47
*language tag*. Which usually is the ISO 639-1/2/3 language code plus
maybe a ISO 3166 country code, but can also be any tag of IANA
registered subtags. If you're interested in the glory details see my
link collection at https://erack.de/bookmarks/D.html#Language_Tags

Making up an arbitrary string like 'en_devel' will not work. A similar
valid language tag however could be 'en-x-devel' indicating
a private-use tag, which is not interoperable though and thus should
never be used for document content or anything else leaving the
"private-use agreement sector".
