Is this only happening on non-English languages or on the English pages as well? In theory this should be a supported feature, e.g. I just grabbed this screenshot:

I'll continue looking into it.

it is not working on any ads. The HTTP header is set to accept-language:en-US,en;q=0.8,de;q=0.6,de-AT;q=0.4. Facebook language is set to de.
