Is there any reason the [language attribute](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_element#The_language_attribute) is not supported?

I guess patching [[/ikiwiki/directive/meta]] to document the fact this attribute is supported would be good. — [[Jon]]

+1 the language attribute works, I see:
<meta name="language" content="en" />
The problem is that it does not generate the lang attribute in `<html>` and that's what's required for [hyphenation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/hyphens) so this would be welcome too!
Also, being able to use the language variable in templates would be very useful for various css tweaks. — [Hugo](https://hroy.eu)
