As you have found, language is neither explicitly nor implicitly encoded in the headers. Automatically determining the language in which a given paragraph of text is written should be relatively trivial, but requires having dictionaries of candidate languages available to the algorithm. I hadn't thought of it, but while we're on the topic of making wishes, for those of us who do use a dictionary, having it automatically selected would of course be nice too (and much more desirable than the current behaviour of "your spelling is so bad I am just going to give up on trying to correct you"). -- Alex Nordstrom http://lx.n3.net/ Please do not CC me in followups; I am subscribed to debian-kde.
