My proposal is to let the download button default to the en-US version 
for users with an en-GB browser setting. I guess this would satisfy the 
needs until en-GB is ready.

That would not be my favorite choice. As Marcus explained the RCs are 
not approved yet. That's why I thought the other.html might be better as 
it gives the choice to pick 3.2.1 or follow the link to the RC.

Yes, for languages that have a NLC project with a proper download page. 
I'm not aware of one for en-GB.
