As to why that line isn't in there to begin with, I don't know. Maybe you can make some recordings and explicitly verify whether the subtitle tracks are correctly listed in the info.vdr files. And if they are not, try to find out why. A good starting point for some debug output would be SetTrackDescriptions() in vdr.c.

The three letter language codes are derived from the codes broadcast in the PID definitions (see pat.c under 'case SI::SubtitlingDescriptorTag:'). The full names are derived from the EPG's component descriptors (see eit.c under 'case SI::ComponentDescriptorTag:'). When it comes to presenting these to the user, they are collected in menu.c, function SetTrackDescriptions(). If no textual description is available, the raw index of the track is used. So VDR just displays what the provider broadcasts - unless, of course, there is a bug in VDR's code, in which case you're welcome to send a fix.
