And I think we should accept the fact that
sender-specified rendering of multilanguage text or text
in which either font presentation or page layout are
important to understanding is going to require medium
(e.g., richtext)- to- heavyweight (e.g., SGML) markup or
page description languages to transmit reliably and are
hence, not part of the text/plain story.
I agree except for the multilanguage qualification. If Text/plain is going to
allow Charset=10646, then (as a user) I would expect complete polylingual
transmision to be completly transmisible, and in that lies the rub (for me as an
implementor).
Anyone for Content-Language: ?
It could help my heuristic proposal, but the natural interpretation would be
mono-lingual.
