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?

For example, to understand which are the source OSes that are making requests to your system. This could be used from a Nginx Ingress Controller log, which records all requests UserAgent's.
There is an ongoing PR in the collector: open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib#35458
From the collector point of view, these attributes are agnostic to its location, they will be extracted from any defined context (span/metric/resource/event). I would like to use it to populate a Nginx Ingress Controller event, but it is not defined in Semconv yet (#982). Would it make sense to add a Nginx log example and explain how these attributes could be extracted?

@lmolkova How could we proceed with this PR? In which section could I add the use-case? brief field?
If a proof of concept is needed beforehand, we could unblock open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib#35886 (comment) by just referencing this PR for now.

I think the (Event) Log SIG may be far enough along that we can start looking into #982, I've left a couple of initial comments there, and added it to next week's Log SIG meeting because I think it's another good example for us to use when considering #1651
Another option for use case besides access log could be to add these attributes as opt-in on HTTP spans / metrics which would enable breaking down HTTP telemetry by Android/iOS or by Windows/Mac.
It would be helpful to understand how the attributes in this PR (
os.type
/os.name
/os.version
) map to a common user-agent parser e.g. https://github.com/ua-parser
