Martin,
I asked exactly that in reply to Roy's comment; still waiting. However, I have been told off-list that parsing the syntactic sugar is not an issue (indeed, it's trivial for a simple parser, as my patch to wget shows).

I definitely agree with Edward here.
I remember that in an earlier round of discussions, Brian told me which
browser supported the syntax and how to use it (I seem to remember it
was for configuration of wireless boxes,...), and that made sense to me.
Looking at the current discussion, it seems that the 6MAN WG figured out
what would work best for them, without really listening to the people
working on the relevant applications (browsers). This should have been
much more of a collaborative effort, with both sides ready to compromise.
To me, the questions are essentially:
- To the 6MAN WG: Would you be ready to go for another syntax (choice 3
or 4 in Appendix A or variants thereof) if the browsers agreed to
implement it?
- To the browsers: Would you ready to implement this feature if it came
with a more compatible syntax?
Hope we can hear from both sides (multiple parties each) soon.
Regards, Martin.
