Details

For chrome documents we know the language from the localization.
This should be provided to gfx for font selection.

This is related to bug 91190, which includes some comments aiming to specify
the language in xul documents, but that bug is tracking (from duplicates)
handling of the "Unicode" language group even for non chrome documents.

There is code in gfxPangoFontGroup to address bug 91190, which reduces the effects of this bug.  However bug 1056479 is proposing removing that code, which would make these bugs visible.

Fluent DOM sets document's language when localizing it.
