We have Simplified Chinese language pages that we wish to serve only to our mainland Chinese customers, and have all other variants of Chinese language (example: zh-TW or zh-sg) tags default to English. Or put differently, I want zh* language-tags (from: http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-tags) to receive English pages and only zh-CN to receive our Simplified Chinese pages. I did try the fallback as well, but the plain "zh" tag among others would still default to Chinese pages for some reason -- even with the: "ForceLanguagePriority Prefer Fallback" option. If I try the 'zh-sg' tag it defaults to the zh-CH page. My theory fell along the same lines as the other problem, where it falls back to the shortest letter code, zh and then picks the first alphabetical choice zh-CH and it never gets to the last step in the apache content negotiation where language priority would take effect. I am unsure if there is a workaround, but this seems like it might have a simple fix similar to what you suggested. I have been unable to figure it out thus far and would appreciate any additional help.
The fallback to main language tags is described here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/content-negotiation.html#better There is no way to turn off that behavior. You could use mod_setenvif or mod_rewrite to set the prefer-language env variable to en in these cases.
