Glen, AXIOM has been around for a long time. Dennis added a core interface and a bunch of stuff without discussion after we had a 1.0 RC out. That's why I -1'ed it. We used to have such a thing before (remember OMBlob?) and removed it because we found it was not necessary. If this is to be added we need to have a thorough discussion to make sure its really needed and not something that can be done with OMText as we found out during the discussion. Sanjiva.
