>> Yeah, I've certainly got mixed feelings - maybe we don't pick up these after-release language codes, and instead produce the new language encoding (which separates language from version) as an extension, alongside the old/in-the-dwarfv5-spec-document codes? So that a DWARFv5 consumer that contains only the DWARFv5-spec-document functionality and not the new codes, and a newer consumer can read the new parts.

I'm not sure that'd be a problem? They're in different attributes, etc, such that they wouldn't be read by an old consumer without explicit support for them.
