Mmm.... maybe. But JVMs don't even do the current BCP 47 (well, most people's don't... they can be made to, at least with the most modern JVMs :-) ). Note too that I said originally that they MAY treat the primary-extlang sequence as atomic, not that it is required. Creating a new algorithm ("Extended Lookup"?) might be preferable to altering an exiting algorithm.
