Title : "X-" Considered Harmful

Many application protocols use named parameters to represent data
(for example, header fields in Internet mail messages and HTTP
requests). Historically, protocol designers and implementers have
often differentiated between "standard" and "experimental" parameters
by prefixing experimental parameters with the string "X-". This
document argues that, on balance, the "X-" convention has more costs
than benefits.
