Seem.. at least when entered at https://r12a.github.io/app-subtags/ in
the Check form it doesn't overly complain.

However, I'd avoid 'und', to me it annotates as "can't determine what
this could be" and in fact it is listed as Undetermined.

Also, my guess is most applications would not support these tags at all.
Of course it depends what you want to use it for, whether it's inhouse
tagging you control the tools used with these tags, or meant for
publicly available classification of languages. Where some
standardization among the parties involved would come handy..

Yes, that's ugly, but unavoidable. For which sa-Latn would be a better
solution.
