Thanks to all for the support. Forms will be coming later this week.
 
I wondered if there was a conflict between Section 2.2.2, which says
extlangs MUST have a P-V identical to the Subtag field, and Section
3.1.7, which says P-Vs MUST be changed so as to avoid chaining.
 
I think we can litigate our way out of this: 3.1.7 describes what
happens when a P-V *changes*, but technically doesn't cover the case
where the P-V field is *removed*. If there is ever a revision to RFC
5646 (I'm not holding my breath), we need to make sure this possible
conflict is resolved.
