There was a problem hiding this comment.
it's not "may apply additional rules": they do apply. I like the addition of "interpretation" though.

It does, although I'm increasingly minded to split the sentence into two parts:
Unicode locale identifiers are well-formed BCP47 language tags.
(this emphasizes the "language tag-ness" of them)
And then:
Unicode locale identifiers have additional rules about the structure and content of a language tag as well as supplying specific interpretation of certain subtags.

I have read the latest draft and have no further comments. These editorial suggestions are not critical for publication and wide review, so if there is no time to discuss them or no consensus to adopt them, that is OK by me.
