[Cross-posted from i18n-activity issue]: Is there any danger of this mechanism being truly broken? It seems that while the consortium has all sorts of negative things to say about the scheme, it is without meaningful direct alternatives. There is no direct alternative for in-band language tagging in plain text, and it also doesn't conflict with other non-deprecated uses, in applications that are aware of the scheme. The deprecation of the Unicode in-band language tagging scheme reads more like a ‘considered harmful’ than a recognizable set of real problems. TL;DR: I think the reasons for deprecating this are overblown, and don't really have any impact on the particular use case; the scheme is easy to implement and hard to mess up, and isn't going to become broken; so in the limited use case, it is not an issue. -- GitHub Notification of comment by xorgy Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/issues/1642#issuecomment-1267513600 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
