Some web apps/widgets/browser extensions can also benefit from knowing the ordered list of languages in Accept-Language.
I should note that Safari only sends one language. The reasons for this are: - protecting users' privacy, as a list of spoken languages can help identify a site visitor better than the primary preferred language; - improving Web compatibility, as servers happen to have most weird problems with complicated Accept-Language strings.
So, the difference between Accept-Language and navigator.language is very minimal for us.

* - Kind of off topic, but I found this incredibly frustrating recently when traveling in countries where I did not know the native language.
Yes, this kind of auto-detection is quite frustrating, and it becomes even more frustrating when sites say "This content is not available in your country". This makes me very skeptical of any proposals that let sites get more information about users without their explicit consent.
