Re: Request for comments on priorities for DNT

I agree that defining some of the core terms, such as "tracking" and
"linkability", needs to be a top priority.  If we cannot define these
terms, either because we cannot come to a consensus definition or because
cementing such definitions would make it impossible to achieve consensus on
compliance terms, then perhaps we should reconsider having one set of
definitions and one set of limitations.  By defining multiple "profiles"
for compliance, the limits of which are defined in the spec, user-agents
and servers could basically negotiate which set of behaviors is acceptable
to both parties, without invoking a complicated exception mechanism.
