Comment (by casiepa):

 I'm all in favor of creating an en_US locale. Great start.
 Modifications will be needed on Glotpress and translate.wordpress.org to
 accommodate the new locale and indicating a different 'source' language,
 which is now considered en_US

 It's still pretty early here and I only had 1 coffee yet, but I'm not so
 sure of why 'English (int)' needs to be created. Should it not just be
 called 'source language'? If I create a plugin and the basic strings are
 in French or Italian, then that would be considered 'English (int)', which
 is still incorrect.

 More heads will be needed here to dig into it, but thanks a lot for
 opening the ticket!
