[TYPO3-english] Multi-language fallback and geolocation for sub-country

I personnally would use some custom php browser language detection for 
that. That way, you can exactly define where you want to send which 
browser.

I had some issues with rlmp_language_detection, because it always showed 
up as USER_INT, and so I decided to check for browser language only on 
the home page (or on any landing page you communicate w/o the L 
parameter), as in my setup, all other pages will have the lang parameter 
set already.

What I think should be avoided is that a user selects a certain language 
but gets kicked back to another language on the next page based on the 
detected browser lang. But maybe it's different in your case, e.g. if 
there's no manual language switch between es and es-ar, it could make 
sense to always force the ar version.
