> Accept-Language header is just an aspiration, it's the Content-Language response header that gives you more useful information about what version of the document was actually viewed. Further to @iherman, an implementation might record the value from Content-Language ... but that too might be insufficient, as it could be triggering the language detection from the initial client's IP address (which can't be reproduced, obviously), from the user agent, or from any number of other factors. The best we can do is to __not__ over specify exactly how the headers must be implemented, and instead provide a framework for clients to fill out information to the best of their ability, given perhaps out of band knowledge. The most generic thing we can do is provide a way to record what request headers to send on the HTTP request for the resource... which is what Http Request State is. If this is sufficient explanation, can we re-close the issue? -- GitHub Notification of comment by azaroth42 Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/web-annotation/issues/220#issuecomment-220766846 using your GitHub account
