Looks like I didn't understand what 'fn' really meant when constructing
the argument against it. Getting your ass handed to you in a public
forum is always a healthy exercise :)

I'd still like a response to the statement Brian made about 'fn' in
hCard and 'fn' in hAudio being "completely different".

At this point, it looks like 'fn' (formatted name) will replace
'work-title' in hAudio (and video, and images).
