Nice example Mihai.
Merci beaucoup, Michel. :)
To reformulate my previous suggestion more clearly, this example
validates for XHTML 1.0 Strict, but it doesn't for XHTML 1.1 with errors
on the two lang attributes. (Using W3C's validator.) It happen to be
valid HTML5 according to the current spec too (if you add the proper
doctype).
Doh, I wanted to add the <!DOCTYPE html>. I just forgot - haste makes
waste, eh.
The question is: should this be valid XHTML5?
I think it should.
Yes, me too. I actually want this to be valid. Has this proposal been made
on a stand alone thread? It might get lost.

The HTML5 spec currently gives the following authoring requirements
regarding lang and xml:lang:
The lang attribute only applies to HTML documents. Authors must not use
the lang attribute in XML documents. Authors must instead use the
xml:lang attribute, defined in XML. [XML]
I'd change it for this:
"Only the lang attribute applies to HTML documents. For XHTML documents,
authors should instead use the xml:lang attribute as defined in XML,
although the lang attribute is also allowed for backward compatibility
reasons. If an element has both the lang and the xml:lang attributes
set, both attributes must have the same value."
I'm wondering if the two attributes shouldn't be mutually exclusive
however, meaning that if one is present, the other must not be.
I'd say... not to allow both attributes in XHTML5, at once. The author
must pick one of them.
Allowing both on the same tag opens up ambiguities.
Also, I'd specifically make it a warning when mixing in the same document
the usage of xml:lang on some tags, and lang on others.
