This makes filtering queries by language difficult for providers. </p> <p>On the other hand, vector databases are by nature language agnostic as the semantic meaning in one language or another can be the same/similar vectors, so restricting to language like e.g. search api database is not necessarily desired. Anything we do here should not be forced on the user, only set up as a default.</p> <h3 id="summary-proposed-resolution">Proposed resolution</h3> <p>Add the language of the item when indexing as an auto-created field. Allow the user to subsequently delete it or change it to e.g. ignore. Sensible default essentially but not required...</p> <h3 id="summary-remaining-tasks">Remaining tasks</h3> <ol> <li>&#9745; Merge request</li> </ol> <h3>Optional: Other details as applicable (e.g., User interface changes, API changes, Data model changes)</h3> <p>N/A</p>
