It sounds like you're suggesting we put a profile in the class  
attribute.  HTML already provides a mechanism for specifying the  
exact meaning of the markup:

<http://microformats.org/wiki/profile-uris>

If what we mean by class="currency" changes, we can indicate that by  
using a different profile.

Peace,
Scott
