Unable to use BCP-47 code for a subset of macro language / mismatch with FLEx data #4048

Description

@markpenny

I am trying to set up a new project. When I type in the 'wsg' BCP-47 code, it shows that it is "Gondi", BUT the only code to select is the macro language code "gon". And there is no way to overwrite or manually set the correct language code (wsg) which is "Adilabad Gondi".

There are 2 problems with this:

  1. I can't enter data with the correct iso code
  2. I can't import an existing FLEx database which uses the correct code 'wsg'

However, it is clear from another dictionary "Gondi Adila Dictionary" that it is possible to add the correct code somewhere, as it shows up as wsg-Telu. Perhaps that is why it isn't possible to add another project with the same 'wsg' code.

What I am trying to test is whether the LIFT import, edit and add new entries in The Combine, followed by export to FLEx via LIFT all works as expected.
