This strikes me as being pretty workable. I'm mentally kicking the
tyres and this seems like quite a robust solution.
I'd be interested to hear from Brian and/or Mike about how tricky
this might be to implement.
Effectively this would be creating a whole bunch of fn shorthands.
Right now we have:
fn org
fn nickname
With this solution we would also have:
fn post-office-box
fn extended-address
fn street-address
fn locality
fn postal-code
fn region
fn country-name
Bye,
Jeremy
