Registration of el-Latn language tag

[Tex Texin]

Thanks John. That's a broad range.

Although Greek is likely a narrower range than
transliterations/transcriptions from other languages to Latin.
(I think.)


I guess it is no worse than en representing perhaps Ye Olde English.

Is there a most likely, or most expected scenario if one requests or
receives el-Latn?
If I wanted to select a spell checker or othography, what would I look for?
