And they shouldn't. We just haven't fixed our tools yet to avoid
adding it. The "Language-Code" header is not part of the gettext
standard but an invention of some old Zope code. It was only required
to support the non-standard i18n folder layout we used in older
versions. These days it has no effect and only confuses people - it
therefor should be removed. The same applies to the Language-Name and
Domain headers.

If you want to import the translations files into a different service
/ program, you should adjust your scripts to read the information from
the directory structure. This is the canonical place for the
information and the one actually used by our code.
