Well, I see your point. Again, I'll start worrying (or defining extensions) when it'll be necessary. Don't you think that there should be a sort of "extension TODO list"? As you see, I already have certain things in mind, and so do others. > No it isn't, it's extremely elegant.

Both are the extreme ends of the same spectrum, I think. > You want to define a new event type? Define it! No consensus, no > debates, no fuss, no muss. That's right. On the other hand, sometimes extension designed by some guy and then adopted because there was nothing better available, limits growth of the scene/market (there's enough resistance to a change to prevent better standards from being adopted). Think IPv4 vs IPv6 (turning a blind eye to a popular opinion that IPv6 is a complex, bloated piece of junk ;) ). > If that's not elegant, I don't know what is ;) Maybe all it lacks is a set of well-thought-out well-defined extensions to start things up? Or maybe the "invisible hand of the scene" will sort things out by itself.
