>
> Currently the code used to call CharsetDetector in both TXTParser and
> HtmlParser is that any incoming language in the metadata map gets replaced if
> the detector returns a language.
> Given the low reliability of this language result, it should only be used in
> cases where there is no provided language, as typically this is coming in
> from either the Http response header or (for the HtmlParser) a meta tag or
> some other tag attribute. In all those cases, the incoming language is more
> accurate than the guess by the CharsetDetector.
