I'm working on the language improvements presently, but I need to clean out a lot of bad entries in my index. In essence what I am trying to say is many servers ignore "Accept-Language" so you have to rely on other means of detecting the language of the page reliably, e.g. inspecting the body content of the response. It's a non-trivial problem online.

So html lang=... is wrong, or doesn't exist?

I wouldn't have expected that to be a hard rule, more like if there are multiple pages to return to have a factor, which one the user most likely wants.
