This is something that spreads deeper than just a few packages, unfortunately.
What we ask when installing is what *language* you want, not *where* you are.
Given that, there's no way to specifically pick what the proper fallback would
be.
Even if you're operating on the language + timezone to attempt to
auto-determine the country, and therefore the fallback language list, you can't
do it reliably. French + CET could land you in France, Switzerland, Belgium, or
even Algeria, all of which would have vastly different lists of fallback
languages.
In any case, the first step would be to generate these lists for a particular
country. Assigning to iso-codes, although I can see it ending up in
glibc-common somewhere.
