I think the class names in the spec have been chosen specifically because there are lots of pages serendipitously using those class names for content with the specified semantics. This will no longer be the case if the "-" prefix is added. Clearly there is soom room for debate on whether the advantages of adding accurate semantic information to many pages is outweight by the disadvantage of adding inaccurate information to a few pages. -- "Eternity's a terrible thought.
