Craig-
The use of any syntax in the application scenarios, such as "tv:", was
specifically NOT meant to be a proposed syntax, but an example for
clarification only. And, the document explicitly says this. Hence "tv:"
(or anything else) is not proposed as a syntax anywhere that I can find.
What I am proposing is that the exact syntax I mentioned be added to the
requirements.
As I mentioned, it may not be appropriate to add this to the application
scenarios, and can be put into the requirements document if folks feel that
is more appropriate.
Regards,
Mike
