Well ... GDocs export function is not broken (unfortunately). The "en" is a
valid BCP-47 tag ... and there's no requirement that language there include
also country part of the tag. GDocs apparently don't discriminate their English
dictionaries for countries, or have one of those dictionaries set as "generic
English" ... and they are formally correct.

We add supported languages as required: people ask Eike to add this locale, or
that locale ... and then provide locale data and translations and dictionaries
... and it appears in our list. Nothing prevents us - or any other OOXML- or
ODF-conformant application - to use "en" locale (as opposed to e.g. "en-US").
