Postponing to look at for 2.1 release.

This is a problem for us as well. Are there any suggestions to amend this in the meantime, while we await the 2.1 version release?

I actually think this is quite important that a rel = "alternate" hreflang = "language-code" is quite important, since there is no indication whatsoever in the generated xmlsitemap as to what the language the content referenced in the sitemap is in. I think this should be added in both the dev version and the stable release of this module, please.

I think this is a bit crazy to save this in a sitemap (when you have hundreds or even more nodes).
I suggest you to use i18n contrib module which has a sub module called hreflang and supports basic hreflang.
