This probably was raised before, but I didn't find it. Why we can't  
put these values into class? It seems to me semantically correct:  
additional meaning. It is as easy to parse as title and it removes  
accessibility issue completely.
As soon as we are going to use prefix let's gain more benefits from  
this and hide our machine readable data deeper.

Best,
