[uf-new] item property (was: hAudio: audio-title/album-title vs. recording/album)

[Justin Maxwell]

Thanks for clarifying that -- your follow-up email to Julian helped  
illustrate usage as well.  It seems a bit odd taxonomically (my  
initial reaction is that an album without a name shouldn't be  
assigned one for the sake of microformats), but acceptable if it  
means we're coming closer to a final working proposal :)
