It seems if the only practical benefit is as a CSS styling hook it might be better to place it in content as that would be more accessible too. And by having it in the language it will waste people's time wondering what to do with it. Any reason hreflang="" is still in HTML, Ian? -- http://annevankesteren.nl/
