On approximately 2/19/2010 6:23 PM, came the following characters from the keyboard of Barry Warsaw:
Is it crackful to think about the policy object also containing a MIME type
registry for conversion to the specialized object types?

While the MIME type registry (and other registries) were (I think) conceptualized as global objects, having them be "just objects" means you could have as many as you want, for different purposes, and means that you could pass them in to the encoding and decoding methods, and might even solve issues with different threads wanting different registries concurrently... they could have them.

I like the idea, although clearly it needs to be fleshed out a bit.
