Using proper language tags for this type of content is often a good
idea, whether it helps the rendering engine choose a font (as suggested
here), helps search engines do their job, or for any other purpose.

The rest of this thread, about HTML vs. XML and browser comparisons and
HTTP headers, has strayed quite far IMHO from anything having to do with
Unicode.
