      The number:rfc-language-tag attribute specifies a language identifier according to the rules of [RFC5646], or its successors.

      It shall only be used if its value can not be expressed as a valid combination of the table:language, table:script and table:country attributes.

      Producers may add support for consumers that don't support the number:rfc-language-tag attribute by specifying table:language, table:script and table:country attributes with values that are implementation dependent.

      Description

      Reads:

      "The table:rfc-language-tag attribute augments the table:language, table:script and table:country attributes. It shall only be used if its value could not be expressed as a valid combination of those. The value shall be a language identifier according to the rules of [RFC5646], or its successors. If a fall-back is provided for consumers that do not support the table:rfc-language-tag attribute, producers should add table:language, table:script and table:country attributes whose values are as close as possible to the actual value of the table:rfc-language-tag attribute. Producers shall not use values for these attributes that contradict the value of the table:rfc-language-tag attribute."

      Issues:

      1) What does augment mean? Not to mention this isn't the form we use for other attribute definitions.

      2) Close as possible? Have already said it can't be expressed so how do we measure close as possible?

      3) Ditto for "shall not contradict". If I can't specify it, how can I contradict it?

      Suggest:

      "The number:rfc-language-tag attribute specifies a language identifier according to the rules of [RFC5646], or its successors.

      It shall only be used if its value can not be expressed as a valid combination of the table:language, table:script and table:country attributes.
