I understand your philosophical objection, and your goal. I appreciate that you are objective enough to see that your personal feelings may not reflect those of your fellow WG members, or those of your constituency. The role of the editor is difficult: they must have the technical ability to assess and reify technical decisions made by the group, but also understand that they are the servant, not the master, despite the relative power put into their hands. Thanks for exemplifying that kind of too-rare accountability. > Thanks again for your hard work and suggestions.

If I wouldn't be intruding, I would like to attend your telcon to briefly prosecute my views on the issue, and to hear the arguments against it. I don't want to take too much of your time on what ultimately is a small issue, though, so I'm also happy to abide by the decision of the XHTML2 WG on this matter.
