This is a follow-up ticket for #28636, where I proposed changes that
differ from the much better solution which came up in the analysis from
Claude Paroz. So in order to clean up things the new approach with the
underlying problem is now mentioned here:
Currently there is no way to explicitly specify a fallback language for
both unsupported languages ( = not in `settings.LANGUAGES`) and missing
literal translations in the translation files. This job is done by
`settings.LANGUAGE_CODE` which controls a lot of other language-related
features.
It would be useful to be able to control this behavior without touching
`settings.LANGUAGE_CODE` which defines your project's installation-wide
language preference. One scenario in which you would benefit from that is
having a non-English project where you want to deliver English as fallback
for languages that differ from your base language.
