    <thetext>The spec needs to be clarified that when it says to pass through the value unmodified, it should also include passing the type information (&quot;This is supposed to be a BCP47 language code&quot;), so that it&apos;s clear that if the next API is not also only limited to BCP47,  there should be a defined mapping somewhere. I should probably explicitly include an example of how mapping lang=&quot;&quot; to OpenType requires defining what to do with strings that aren&apos;t meaningful BCP47 codes but could be interpreted in other formats OpenType supports.</thetext>
