More likely "Content" instead of "Text."  This particular change was
made in several places between drafts -01 and -02, to satisfy Peter's
concern about addressing spoken language as well as written.

While we are on about wording, the Description field in the BCP 47
registration form (Section 2,4), "Transform Specification," doesn't seem
very parallel with "Unicode Locale" as specified in RFC 6067.  I was
thinking "Content Transforms" or "Content Transformations" might be
better.  This is not a showstopper.
