Currently it is set to "None" when fallback is added. Some nations could
feel offended if "American" is used. I think that users might also not
understand that they can change it.
Anyway, I will send an e-mail about it to kde-usability (I have changed
usability to accessibility in my previous e-mail), we will see what they
say.

You set it to "None". Maybe button "Remove last fallback language" would
be better.
