The introduction of mixing/component aspects into the name feels too
programmer-centric (while microformats as a whole seek to be
content-author-centric).

Also, "adr" and "geo" reflect the precise value of the root class names to
be used, and thus their names are useful mnemonics for the (beginning of
the) format.

Thanks,
