Honestly, I didn't think this mailing list would question the need for a microformat. Question its structure and its uses, of course, but question its necessity? It seems fundamental that a standard for presenting book-format texts should be written.
I didn't mean to imply an answer to the question I asked. It was really just a question. The about page [1] says microformats are "adapted to current behaviors and usage patterns," are not "defining the whole world, or even just boiling the ocean," and "solve a specific problem." I think "is this needed?" is a question that should be asked of all potential microformats, to keep these statements true. If the answer is yes, then great. But it's not always yes. Not everything needs a microformat.
