Modulo the issue with collisions, which I have already acknowledged as an edge case we should specify. It doesn't matter. Its an implementation choice, and it is based upon the implementor's knowledge of the environment they are targeting. My implementation, for example, uses NONE of those methods. But I am convinced it would render the same prefix mappings. It really, really, really doesn't matter. We aren't making this up. -- Shane P.
