Then, shouldn’t we deprecate "espanol" as well? (Just above.)

It does not have non-ASCII notenames, so you might end up with "español"
being the only non-ASCII word in the file.
"francais" is not historical, and its distinguishing feature is that it
uses non-ASCII notenames anyway.  So there just is no point in adding
it.  If French speakers do not intend to use non-ASCII notenames, I
guess they'll be happier writing "italiano" than the non-word
"francais".
