This kind of delves into the "authoritative standards" doesn't it? And how do you keep up with an ever-growing repository of microformats?
Obviously it can be done -- and it's something that we need, especially if we're to get support for microformats into client-side software... so isn't that where remote definitions/profiles come in? Sorry for showing my ignorance here, but how would, for example, Flock, (or better, Lucene) stay up-to-date with the most current listing/definitions of all the available microformats?

Yes, this is currently the case. We are working on a solution, although I can't make any specific commitments. >From what I've gathered, one of the reasons that some blogging platforms strip class attributes is to prevent users from marking up posts in a manner that uses existing CSS definitions to alter the layout of the page, hide ads etc. One solution we've discussed is to create a white list of known microformat classes and to allow them. What do you all think about this? Any other suggestions?

The only exceptions are for blogging platforms that don't allow class attributes in the HTML.
