That's not actually quite true - a typical browser will send something like:
en-GB, en
The issue (which I worked around in the rails code) is that if somebody
asks for "fr-CA, fr" and we only have "fr_FR" then we would normally
wind up falling back to english which probably isn't optimal.
In the rails code we generally only use the language code as in most
cases we don't have multiple locale specific variants of a language. So
the one we do have then acts as a default.
