Section 4.5.6 of the CR states:

Each */element information item/* in the top-level included items 
<http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/#dt-top-level-included-items> which has a 
different value of *[language]* than its include parent 
<http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/#dt-include-parent> has an */attribute 
information item/* added to its *[attributes]* property. This attribute 
has the following properties:

What if the include parent is a document, not an element? in other 
words, what if the root element is an xi:include element? The current 
language suggests that no xml:lang attribute would be added in this 
case, but I doubt that's the intent.
