When this happens, the value of navigator.language is changed (or should be!). It would be nice if HTML provided some means to be notified that the change had taken place. The application can then use this information to perform appropriate localization changes on the client side. For example, reformatting DOM elements that contain times and dates to better suit the new locale information (this could work together with the ECMAScript i18n API). 125961 1 arronei 2016-04-20 19:22:13 +0000 HTML5.1 Bugzilla Bug Triage: This bug constitutes a request for a new feature of HTML. Our current guidelines, rather than track such requests as bugs or issues, is to create a proposal for the desired behavior, or at least a sketch of what is wanted (much of which is probably contained in this bug), and start the discussion/proposal in the WICG (https://www.w3.org/community/wicg/). As your idea gains interest and momentum, it may be brought back into HTML through the Intent to Migrate process (https://wicg.github.io/admin/intent-to-migrate.html).
