I agree it may be more difficult to find cases where "don't translate" applies
to a full page. But Yves (comment #56) gave a good example.
Even if we didn't find such a good example currently, would that mean that we
should not allow the attribute (or whatever) on the <html> element? In my view,
that would be a bad idea. Even if it gets used very rarely, it's much easier
for users, for implementers, and for spec writers and readers,... if the
attribute is just allowed everywhere. Then if an use case comes up later,
nobody has to wonder "why is this allowed everywhere but not here".
Of course if you had something different in mind when asking for such specific
use cases, then the above reasoning might not apply, but then it would be very
helpful to know what you had in mind.
