We could add per-country or per-geographical-area rules about what the 'default'

Seems like the right answer to me. There are lots of things that would
benefit from this scheme: default speed limits, driving on left/right,
default access rights, etc etc...
Often, there is no sharp dividing line between one language area and another
So those areas should specify languages explicitly. Very many
countries have a single official language. Asking every mapper to add
this extra tag, rather than just the ones where it could be ambiguous,
doesn't make sense.
I have no idea if anyone's interested in implementing the "default"
system though.
