Currently optional. Not sure we made an explicit decision. What 
arguments are there for making it required? Understand that it is 
useful, just curious if we should make it required.

Planned on saying they should match, but I think it was Chris (or 
perhaps you) who pointed out that some valid languages won't be able to 
be specified in xml:lang. That might be an argument to not make it required.
