Clarifying: "WebKit could use some heuristics to determine accuracy of these cases (where lang=en is accurate)." I'm suggesting some heuristics to determine whether the content language really is English, and if so, only then expose the "en" value for AXLanguage.

A variety of anecdotal evidence indicates this isn't a problem for pages with a non-English value defined. e.g. http://www.softbank.jp/ gets it right (lang="ja").
