Maybe I misunderstand the prefix rule, but I (thinking as a user) would be
disappointed to get a french version if I requested "en-us" and all the
server found was "fr" and "en". I would really expect to get the "en" variant
(and I'd interpret http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.4
like that if I were the user).
