In Section 3.2, there appears to be confusion between the terms "mime-charset" and "ext-charset". Section 4.1 of this I-D states: Section 4.2 of [RFC2277] requires that protocol elements containing text are able to carry language information. Thus, the ext-value production should always be used when the parameter value is of textual nature and its language is known. In fact RFC 2277 states that "[a]ll human-readable text has a language" and appears to emphasize human-readable text. Although it's not truly clear if RFC 2277 makes a distinction between "text" and "human-readable text", it might be useful to incorporate that distinction here because many textual strings included in protocol elements are not intended for human consumption.

In section 3.2: Producers MUST NOT use character sets other than "UTF-8" ([RFC3629]) or "ISO-8859-1" ([ISO-8859-1]). Extension character sets (ext- charset) are reserved for future use. ext-charset does not appear in the ABNF. Should it?
