Hi Richard,

The language combo-box allows you to enter arbitrary language tags.
What happens if you just enter khb-CN in there.

Using vanilla Version: 4.3.3.2, Build ID:
9bb7eadab57b6755b1265afa86e04bf45fbfc644 on Ubuntu 12.04 with Unity
desktop, I can't enter text in that box.  If I tab to the box so that
is highlighted, 'k' changes the selection to Kannada, 'h' changes the
selection to 'Khmer', 'b', '-' and 'c' have no effect, and 'N' changes
the selection to N'ko.  (The effects seem to depend on the speed of
typing - the 'h' can change the selection to Hebrew and 'b' can change
it to Bengali (Bangladesh).)

Arbitrary language tags can be entered only in the "Western" [sic]
language combobox, the CTL and CJK languages are listboxes only to
choose from predefined sets. That is because internally we don't have
a mechanism yet to flag a language as being CTL or CJK and have that
automatically recognized wherever needed. This is
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81714

The trick of copying inserting the language in the .xml files does not
work well.  If I have some text with khb-CN as the language and region
and then try to set the language for a greater expanse of text, khb-CN
does not come up in the menu.

Does it come up if the cursor is positioned on a portion of text that
already has the tag assigned?
