Default locale should be browser's default locale #16

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The default locale, like the one returned by new Intl.LocaleList() is 'root'. 
It should either come from the browser by looking up navigator.language, or if 
that doesn't exist, get a default from ICU or the system.

(Note: navigator.language may not be standard DOM. We may or may not care.)

The spec seems to say that we must always support the default Locale in the 
services (section 10.1, under [[availableLocales]]). We must check that ICU 
supports the navigator.language language before we return it as the default for 
the DefaultLocale. If ICU doesn't support it, we should return 'und', since 
'root' is not valid BCP 47.
