Microformat Opacity/Object/Opaque Brainstorming

Can increased use of profile URIs solve this problem?

profile-uris are already recommended. Here's a proposal to make them required whenever opacity rules come up:

  • Whenever one microformat is used within another, the interior microformat's profile URI MUST be used.
  • Parsers must disregard all content within the root element identified in an unrecognized profile.

While not as flexible as an additional class name (e.g. class="mfo"), I like that profile URIs don't require publishers to think about parsing behavior.

Issues

  • People who publish using blogs, CMSs, Wikis etc. (including this wiki!) have no ability to add or change profile URIs in header tags. Andy Mabbett 14:28, 17 Jun 2007 (PDT)
