This discussion is open for think about how can be the api for help in applications with internationalized routing like https://example/en/blog or https://en.example.com/blog.

without map in each route the loc for each language

parhaps to be in accordance with this definition the alternateRefs can be used for generate each url

Example
Turn this

// routes/about.ts

export const sitemap: SitemapFunction = () => ({
  alternateRefs: [
    {
      href: 'https://example.com',
      hrefLang: 'en',
    },
    {
      href: 'https://es.example.com',
      hrefLang: 'es',
    }
  ]
}) 

Into this

<url>
  <loc>https://example.com/about</loc>
  <xhtml:link
    rel="alternate"
    hreflang="en"
    href="https://example.com/about" 
  />
  <xhtml:link
    rel="alternate"
    hreflang="es"
    href="https://es.example.com/about"
  />
<url>
<url>
  <loc>https://es.example.com/about</loc>
  <xhtml:link
    rel="alternate"
    hreflang="en"
    href="https://example.com/about" 
  />
  <xhtml:link
    rel="alternate"
    hreflang="es"
    href="https://es.example.com/about"
  />
<url>

It would be very useful for our application's usage of this package, if the alternateRefs was configurable so that the locale could be in various positions or formats. For instance, we use the ?lang=en query string rather than /en/ or en.domain.com, but had to patch the module to enable this for our use-case. Could there perhaps be the inclusion of some kind of pattern value to determine how the href value is structured with the locale?
