--- Comment #6 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
While 'zh' is only a macrolanguage tag, replacing the zh-CN and zh-TW language
tags technically is not a good idea. Both are established in most major office
programs and supporting them is necessary for interoperability, spell-checking,
locale attribution and so on.

Introducing other language tags to differentiate is fine, if translations
differ and result in different UIs and/or different attribution. For 'cmn' vs
'zh-CN' I do not see this is the case.

However, we could add cmn-CN for zh-CN and cmn-TW for zh-TW aliases. This
actually makes sense in case imported document content is attributed that way
to have it map to supported language tags.
