Indeed. it sounds to me like we were trying a bit harder on the lang comparison
too. then I feel we shouldn't allowed <test
name="lang"><string>xx</string></test>. instead, using
<langset><string>xx</string></langset> may be somewhat easy to imagine it's not
something can be done by the string operation. then we can make this feature
for string specific operation.

FWIW my main interests on this feature is comment#6 now, but not original one.
this is more important to implement PostScript related features in bz.
