If both the xml:lang attribute and the lang attribute are set,
user agents must use the xml:lang attribute, and the lang
attribute must be ignored for the purposes of determining the
element's language.
While the requirement for authors is pretty clear (HTML: lang;
XHTML: xml:lang), it seems to me that the user agent is asked to
always favour xml:lang even in an HTML context. Is this really
what's intended? I think this ought to be clarified.

Okay, so if I understand well, xml:lang in the spec refers to the
"lang" attribute in the "xml" namespace, not to the "xml:lang"
attribute in the null namespace that you get with the HTML parser. It
makes sense from a DOM perspective, but it's misleading from a markup
perspective, so I still think it should be clarified.
And although it's less confusing, I think the same should be
clarified about xml:id: it's the "id" attribute in the "xml"
namespace, not the "xml:id" attribute in the null namespace that you
get with the HTML parser.
