I don't think running an experiment will work well for this case. I agree W3C already assumed that multiple suffixes would be allowed... If they end up forbidden, W3C will need to make updates... If they end up allowed but are really only relevant to JSON-LD, or other polyglot media types... the problem will remain open every time a polyglot media type requests registration as a structured suffix. Best solution seems to be: 1. Specification required. 2. Experts are directed to relax registration requirements for suffixes that build on other subtypes (like +cose builds on +cbor, and +jwt builds on +json)... This makes sense to me So you don't need to register weird and useless stuff like +ld+jwt, or +json+jwt if you don't have a need to use them by themselves... If that changes in the future and someone really needs +ld+jwt... They can claim it, by writing a specification and getting it to RFC. If the draft says this explicitly the problem with suffixes seems solved. Is it possible to get this language in?
