Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: I concur with those saying that this ship has sailed.
Implementations have shipped. Changing this unless there's a real problem is
not a good use of resources. There's really nothing wrong with strings as
output here anyway, it's done all over the Web API.
