Re: Accept-Language: proposal

The existence of this header also indicates that the sender is capable
of handling text encoded in the utf-8 charset [RFC 2044], when properly
MIME labeled.


Please no.

The syntax of this header is deliberately a subset of that in HTTP.

Please don't use something with the same syntax but different
semantics. In HTTP, accept-language and accept-charset are orthogonal,
and the reasons for making them so in HTTP apply equally to mail.
