Not a good idea. First japanese websites have almost NEVER
metatags in them and second it blows a page and I-mode sites
must be small for a fast user experience and for the 5kb limit.
Also if a searchengine promotes a new user tag, it doesn't mean that
people adopt this very fast.
No, the searchengine should be intelligent and work with several
'suspiscious' modes...if a page can be possible an I-mode site,
than there should be more tests on this page like:
Contains accesskey? Contains Omoji? Is under 5kb? Shift_JIS header?
Contains the word I-mode? ...?
How you weight these tests is a try and error thing until it works.
