Now, you can extend this further, although it becomes arguable. Since Australian & UK English are largely the same, and since UK English is by definition *the* English, you should probably put them into "en" rather than waste space having two dialects which are for the vast majority of cases identical. Any US specific strings can then go into "en_US". So this way you conserve space, while catering for all the major groups I can think of.

The default locale on Mac OS X is US English.
Mac OS X is not localised into other English "dialects".
If you want to see other locales supported, by all means file an enhancement request.

End of discussion as far as this list is concerned.
