Just a little clarification about my previous proposal. I suggested
that profiles could register a short name as equivalent to a longer
URL-named profile, but it wasn't intended that profile URLs be
disallowed. This:
<div profile="http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-profile">
and this:
<div profile="hcard">
would be both allowed and equivalent, only the later is shorter to
write. Private vocabularies (to not call them microformats) would be
able to use URLs, but to use short names the URL would need to be
registered with that name first. Any unregistered short name would be
non-conformant. So profile, contrary to class, would have no
possibility of conflict.
(Short names would be defined as containing no colon, so that they
can't be valid absolute URLs.)
