Research direction

Wait for the autogen_types branch to be merged, then inspect the comment, post, site, and community forms. Confirm how the generated types expose language IDs and add the requested language_id fields to each form. Done means all four forms support selecting or submitting a language ID without breaking existing form behavior.
