Yes, the rpm -qd does only show the documentation files and seems not to show, 
whether the files are specific for a certain language. E.g. it does not allow 
easily to spot files that should probably marked as %doc, but are not in 
package reviews. Btw. it also seems that directories that only 
contain %doc-files are not marked as %doc, e.g. /usr/share/doc/foo-1.23, is 
this intended?
