From what I've read on this list, that's not what some implementations
intend to do, and the pace reads like a handwave to allow all sorts of
divergent behavior that would make it difficult to write a client. For
example, one implementation intends to have "rich HTML content" in the
content field, while still having an "edit resource".
Still haven't gotten a straight answer here. I suppose the WG can
assume the channel flooding that followed this email is complete BS,
as usual. :/
