Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-text] Should 'hyphens: auto' work if lang="" is not declared? (#869)

That's fine, the lang attribute can be applied to any element, and different elements in the page can have different values.

That's tough. Doing correct hyphenation on un unknown mix of languages is going to be hard. Falling back to the language of the operating system wouldn't help (as was the case for the implementations that did hyphenation even without a declared language)
