I think Scott's point is that we have the same problem using 'summary',
as we do with using 'title', as we do with using 'fn'.

Egad! I had no idea that is what the community meant by "no
namespace"... to programmers what you have described is a scope-less,
procedural language. Am I misunderstanding you? Do Microformats use a
scope-less design paradigm? Am I waaaaaay off here (I hope I am):

Variable Scoping

Therefore, the example you give above would boil down to these
assignment statements in a finite state machine (ie: the parser):

media.title = title#1
media.hcard.title = title#1

Is this what you are stating, Brian?
