Hi fellow pandoc users:
I'm converting reStructuredText to HTML using the standalone option,
and finding that setting the 'lang' metadata actually wraps the value
of the field in HTML tags. Here's an example session:
$ cat test.rst
===========
A Test File
===========
:Author: Myself
:lang: en-US
A Wonderful Chapter
===================
In which I expound the virtues of reStructuredText ...
$ pandoc -s -f rst -t html test.rst | head -n 2
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="<p>en-US</p>" xml:lang="<p>en-US</p>">
$ pandoc --version
pandoc 2.14.0.3
Note in particular the `<p>` tags in `lang="<p>en-US</p>" xml:lang="<p>en-US</p>">`.
Nothing appears wrong with the template:
$ pandoc -D html | head -n 2
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="$lang$" xml:lang="$lang$"$if(dir)$ dir="$dir$"$endif$>
... and Markdown works fine:
$ cat test.md
---
title: A Test File
lang: en-US
---
## A Wonderful Chapter
In which I expound the virtues of Markdown ...
$ pandoc -s test.md | head -n 2
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">
Any ideas? Is this a known bug, or have I done something wrong?
Cheers,
- Ben

That's not a known bug -- but it is clearly a bug.
Could you put up an issue on our GitHub bug tracker, jgm/pandoc?
Thanks!
