To me its one and the same.  To have an usable alternate view, it needs a
consistent and natural syntactic rules that users can easily deduce at a
glance without even a paragraph of explanation; a difficult HCI goal, but
certainly worth pursuing.

Heh.  All I can do is ignore.  I find that, as I get older, selection of
books, movies, and music attractive to me becomes smaller and smaller
because genres, plots, actors, and singers I dislike keeps growing.  Oh,
well.

I never liked it when W3C cronies tried to talk me out of working on
Minimal-XML and Common-XML, so I am not about to do the same.  My motto is
let birds do what they must: fly.  Meanwhile, I'll stand here pretending to
be a tree and waiting for the birds to return eventually.  Gosh, I am poetic
today. <g>

Best,
