Regarding the question of "actionable": Ideally, authors should be able to add content-language information via the META tag, and then experience that the web server - and the Web browser - use this information to perform language negotiation. Richard, you made many tests of how UAs react to language tagging: Perhaps it is possible to make test case for what web servers and browsers do with the content-langauage information with regard to content negotiation? -- leif halvard sillli
