In addition to the comments below, we note that there is barely mention
of language or locale negotiation or locale considerations in this
document. This is probably appropriate given the scope of this document,
focused strictly on the XmlHttpRequest object.However, it should be
noted that lack of these capabilities will require non-interoperable
custom implementations. Standardization of language/locale negotiation
for AJAX and REST type interactions (that rely on XHR) should be
described somewhere. This may represent a work item for the
Internationalization Core WG. In particular, we note these documents:
Web Services Internationalization Usage Scenarios
[http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/NOTE-ws-i18n-scenarios-20040730/]
Requirements for the Internationalization of Web Services
[http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/NOTE-ws-i18n-req-20041116/]
Yeah, this seems out of scope. If at some point someone writes an
authoring guide for XMLHttpRequest it could probably provide guidance on
this. (I don't think that the Web API WG currently has volunteers to edit
such a document, unfortunately.)
