I'm wondering, if you translate a <p lang="de">Hallo Welt</p> to English, but leave the lang="de" bit intact, does it confuse browsers? Firefox right now doesn't have a native translation feature, but if it had, it would still see the page as German maybe and offer translation. I should test this in other browsers that do have it (Chrome, Safari…)
