While I agree with Al in principle, I would also expect resistance from those who aren't competent in the use of metadata, or who have the concerns of such authors in mind. As a result we will probably have to allow textual claims as is customary, though continuing to emphasize the advantages of Earl. A set of supplied Earl to XHTML/SVG etc., XSLT transformations would help to ease the transition, too.
