Setting the accepted language setting using ChromeDriver (tested against ChromeDriver 2.0)

gistfile1.java
HashMap<String, String> prefs = new HashMap<String, String>();
prefs.put("intl.accept_languages", "de-DE,de");
options.setExperimentalOptions("prefs", prefs);

Try to convert this into python like so :

from splinter import Browser
from selenium import webdriver
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_experimental_option('prefs', {'prefs': {'intl.accept_languages': 'en,en-US'}})
browser = Browser('chrome', options=chrome_options)

I can't get it to work, Chrome (Google) still the accpted language remain the same as define in Profil 1 Preferences file... Even more annoying is that if I change the accept_language attribute in the Preferences file, when I launch Chrome with chromedriver the orignal setting remain the same, in my case since my locales are in french it seems to keep fr as accept_languages...

Any idea??
