[Bug 12417] HTML5 is missing attribute for specifying translatability of content

So the use case for inline fragments marked as not to be translated is things
like product names or quotations from other languages or people's names, etc.
It makes sense to have a dedicated way to mark that up because as automated
translation and assisted translation becomes more widely used, and as sites
become more widely translated, human and computerised translators need
assistance in determining what the original author didn't want translated.

But what's the use case for the full-page case?
