Could we have a bit of a breather to allow the implications to sink in,
and, critically, to allow the development of conformance testing tools?
If there were a tool which could be run on a document, that confirmed that
it was conformant, and a similar tool for server behaviour, and people
had had some time to try to integrate these with the existing
software, it'd be easier to assess the tradeoffs involved in the spec
decision.
