Hi,
This needs some major thought and discussion.
The current IETF standards around language tags
allow description of script and many other dimensions
besides "natural language" (US English).
I'm not sure of the standardization status of language
tags on MIME types, but the PWG *definitely* should
NOT be inventing this home brew.
I'd rather use first class attributes for complex language,
script, transliteration, etc. transformations.
We need advice here from the IETF LTRU (Language
Tag Registry Update) WG chairs and editors.
There IS work-in-progress in IETF LTRU WG for
language tag translation-request extensions.
MIME Types proper should be reserved for document
formats, NOT for document metadata (like language
tags).
Cheers,
- Ira
