What wrapper should I use, <header>? I'm used to <div>, but I want a modern markup if reasonable. Based on the spec quote below, it seems like a good choice. Is it?

The header element represents a group of introductory or navigational aids.

Yes, you can use a header element for these parts.

The spec notes that it can be used for "any relevant logos" and the last examples shows that the header contains the navigation (which a language switcher and a hamburger button typically are).

You could also use multiple header elements, e.g., if there’s something between these parts that should not be part of the header.
