It would have been a massive help if we were able to, quickly, see

1. First you must activate the attribute panel.
2. Then you must navigate to the (xml:)lang attribute.
3. Then you must check whether that attribute present or not.
4. If it present - then, simply check that the language tag is
correct.
5. But if the (xml:)lang attribute is not present (and usually this
is
exactly the case), then you must in principle go through each and
every parent element to check whether any of them contains a
(xml:)lang attribute.
There is very quick way to check this.
The tooltip (AKA "ballon help") displayed by the node path bar shows
all the attributes of the element over which the mouse pointer is
hovering. This includes the xml:lang attribute.
Could you enhance this feature so that the *inherited* language gets
displayed as well? For instance, if I specified "nn" on the HTML
element, then, when hovering over e.g. a <p> element to see its
features, the tooltip could say (xml:lang="nn") in a parenthesis to
signal that the language has been herited.
(It's also a quick way to see the ID of an element.)
Thanks. It is very helpful.
