Okay, that looks to me more like a simple, clear problem that  
microformats could potentially solve.  But I'd suggest that a lot of  
the recent discussion here has strayed into other problems.  For  
example:

How does considering this help us define the currency of the prices  
presented?  It looks like we just strayed from marking up currency to  
marking up exchange rates.
