[Bug 1527663] Re: firefox 43 Accept-Language header does not follow preferences

Confirmed on Ubuntu 16.04 (french) and Firefox 46.

This is really confusing to get served the english version of a web site
instead of the french version. Sometimes there is no way or no obvious
way to change the language on the website. Moreover, the website may
offer a very different view assuming your are not french or located in
France, giving you a wrong currency for example when you want to buy
something.

I just lost one day on a website I wanted to subscribe to because the
content did not make sense to me unless the correct Accept Language was
set. I could subscribe without problems by using Chromium.
