Dear Scott,
I am sorry: ask Frank. RFC 3066 bis imposes the Unicode (IBM/MS/...) CLDR format. And excludes the IETF RFC 4151 format. You can use open HTML but will have to use langtag closed limited format. Same kind of considerations as Words, but more dangerous for the reader as it provides a nice meta-spam vehicle for cultural, racial, religious profiling and privacy violation. A kind of problem a societal consideration part should address in an Internet document.
