Personal comment: "Applying the language information data category to xml:lang attributes using global rules is not necessary, since xml:lang is already defined in terms of [RFC 4646]." Strictly speaking xml is defined in terms of RFC 3066 or its successor. It may be better to say "in terms of [BCP 47]" at this location. If not, you should add, or it's successor. (Bear in mind that RFC 4646bis is just around the corner, relatively speaking.)
