Exactly.  That's my primary concern with trying to solve this problem  
right now: building a solution around hypothetical publishing makes  
the solution more likely to fail when real publishing shows up.  I  
think it would be good if more publishers were adding their own non- 
microformat semantics to their HTML to see how multiple experiments  
actually conflict and how those conflicts are most easily resolved  
before we formalize the process.

Peace,
