That would be the proper thing to do.

Seems that way

in TTML2 as part of the media type (and preferably in my view) then
registered with IANA (not the other way around either).

define the new media type parameter formally in TTML2 or our decisions and
this communication are meaningless.  Is your point that we did not agree as
a group to register the update with IANA?  I agree, but I also did not say
that to MPEG (although I personally think we should).

if that's useful but we haven't decided to do that. If we do, then clearly
the relevant part of the TTML 2 spec would need updating to match. If we
don't, then there may be no changes resulting, in TTML2.

to include the proposed syntax above." ? Unless we're changing the IANA
registration then I do not think we have agreed to do this.
