At least, I don't think we had that use case in mind when writing the view-mode spec. I think that Dean's notes make a lot of sense: we need a standard integration path for Web apps. This doesn't need to clutter HTML, we can define new <link> or <meta> pretty much anywhere. Which group should this be dropped on? WebApps? Or maybe a CG?
