hreflang is unlikely to be useful.  Nothing I know of uses it, and I don't
think we should add it just because we can.

Adding lang="" to interwiki links is more reasonable, although I'm not sure how
necessary it is.  Do we have any actual complaints from users, or is it just
theoretical WCAG stuff?  Is anyone with a screen reader really going to sit and
listen to the list of languages anyway?  If so, how much does it help the
screen reader if the language is specified explicitly?  Maybe we should add all
these attributes just because WCAG says so, but I'd be happier if we had more
concrete data than that.

If we do add lang="", we have to be careful, because several of our language
codes are nonstandard.  Also, certainly we shouldn't add a duplicate
xml:lang="" as well, that's just a waste of space.
