I think the answer is "yes". For tagging of content, there is no "leak",
only information -- that is the entire point of the tag. For negotiation,
there necessarily has to be some exchange of information ("I prefer X").

See above re. the necessity of information exchange. TLS is available to
protect against eavesdropping.

You can of course ignore it if you wish. I also fail to understand how
you can be opposed to a language tag as "spam" yet at the same time
apparently wish to compound the amount of "spam" by including icons,
dictionaries, timestamps, etc.
