[i18n-activity] No means of negotiating the language/locale of the payment experience (#1413)

aphillips has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/i18n-activity:

== No means of negotiating the language/locale of the payment experience ==
https://w3c.github.io/secure-payment-confirmation

While there are only a few strings in the the SPC spec that can contain natural language data (most fields are locale-neutral IDs of various kinds), there is no mechanism in webAuthn or in SPC to communicate the locale preference(s) of the customer or caller to the Relying Party. Such information might be needed in order to compute the language-specific URL for display as an iframe or to fill in appropriately localized versions of the display name or icon image returned.

The lack of such a mechanism seems to be an oversight.
