Hello list, just a quick point for discussion:

Lets say you have a personal registration form in your web app, for
entering contact data which will later be output as an hCard in
various places.

What if I was to mark up the form (and fields) with hCard classes?
Good idea? Bad idea? I strikes me that it could be useful for auto-
complete applications, but not sure if it would 'pollute' the web
with effectively a useless/empty hCard when the form is published.

You must have been tuned into my brain today, because I was thinking
about the same thing...  I think the auto-form fill would be neat. Did
you see Drews demo of that with openID?  It didn't require the forms
to use the microformat class names or anything.

I hadn't thought about the empty hCard information that would
accidentally be produced by marking form fields though.  I think that
is a good arguement for NOT doing it.
