How many emails is enough, Jonas?

Is there a magic number? Does it have to be equivalent to what
happened with Microdata, and is currently happening with summary?

Do we have to send emails to the group that state "No, people I REALLY
mean it! I want to remove details! Talk to me!"

I'm sorry, I know I'm coming across as facetious, and your concerns
are valid. But we're damned if we do--for cluttering up the email
list-- and damned if we don't.
