Particularly as I look at the challenges of sanely incorporating vocabularies such as SVG and MathML, and then what we would need to do when the next vocabulary comes along, it would seem to be a necessity (or we're just encouraging people to roll their own). I think it's a poor language that doesn't think about its own extensibility, particularly when its own vocabulary already approaches "prohibitively large". > Are you thinking about domain specific vocabularies as well? I asked about the status of RDFa in HTML5 almost a year ago [1]. I believe RDFa would be a great way to enable custom vocabularies in HTML5. There is an increasing number of tools in a variety of languages that already work with RDFa as well as related technologies to create vocabularies in a structured way.
