ISSUE-88 content-language: informal consensus check

Since the I18N WG endorses this Change Proposal, and the editor also  
agrees, I'd like to hear if anyone else would object to this as a  
resolution to ISSUE-88. If no one objects, the Chairs will seek to  
close this issue by amicable resolution. If there are objections, then  
we will seek some other way to resolve this issue promptly, such as  
using a survey.

Regards,
Maciej
