I chose English/Switzerland in the language & country selection
dialogs, and d-i then offered only the en_US locales. Arguably,
there should be en_CH, given the international orientation of
Switzerland, but while that does not exist, en_GB would be a better
match for Switzerland.

You can choose en_GB if you install in expert mode (or with 
priority=medium). I don't think we want to set defaults for unofficial 
languages. The number of possible combinations would be insane, and its 
also more a matter of personal preference than any real rule.

As what you want is already possible, I'm closing your report.

Cheers,
FJP
