I believe it is the same (american english) when using CJK.sty (or what did 
you mean by CJK-LaTeX?). Dou you have a documentation pointer?

I doubt that this would help. A text has always a language, but in some 
cases we might not know it. You would need to implement many special cases, 
and it would not offer anything more than english + \language_package none. 
If anybody wants to implement this, please use "None" or "Unspecified" 
rather than "Default", since "Default" implies that in the end a particular 
language is used, which would be wrong.

This already the case.
