I agree with Julian. Since the consensus of the working group was to reject the Translate header approach (for the reasons Julian mentions, and others), I believe it should not be introduced in the revised document, and definitely should not be characterized as an "interoperable solution".

An interoperable solution exists (the Microsoft Translate header) but has received rejection on the list due to its lack of support for dynamically-generated resources with multiple source files. - the Translate header violates RFC2616 which explicitly says that variant handling is *not* supposed to switch between "getting the source" and "executing a script" - the actual implementation in IIS breaks RFC2616 in that it doesn't list "Translate" as request header on which the GET result varies.
