Hi Art, I think I heard you say something different at the workshop, which is why I'm pinging you... I think that there are a few places where this requirement goes beyond what's in the Design Goals, and also beyond Motherhood and Apple Pie -- specifically, reusability of the signature framework for Web Applications (this one should be relatively easy), and resource identification, i.e., the pesky URI scheme debate (this one is less likely to be easy).
