**[1]:** [Example](https://www.whatsmyua.info) of extracting browser's name from original string. In the case of using a user-agent for non-browser products, such as microservices with multiple names/versions inside the `user_agent.original`, the most significant name SHOULD be selected. In such a scenario it should align with `user_agent.version`

Could you please describe the use-case for these attributes? is there any instrumentation or semantic convention that's supposed to populate it?

We usually add attributes along with the convention (span/metric/resource/event) that uses them - this usually results in more specific attribute definition and more clarity for those who want to populate the attribute on other conventions.

So, could we define such convention and/or document the use-case in some other way?
