3. There should be a specification of how collisions between extension
fields and standard fields are resolved. E.g. if I have
Extension: Home
Home-page:http://www.python.org
is Home-page the extension field or the PEP 345 field? There are
several ways to resolve this; I suggest giving precedence to the
standard field (unless you specify that extensions must follow all
standard fields, in which case you can drop the extension prefix
from the extension keys).
Unless i'm mistaken (which I may be!) I believe that a / can be used as
the separator between the namespace and the "real" key.
What do you mean by "can be"? In RFC 822, a slash can be in a
field-name, yes, but the PEPs recently became silent on the meta-syntax.
Home-page: http://www.python.org
Extension: Home
Home/other-thing: Foo
Doing this is the "Extension" field required?
Well, in my example it would then be
Home-page: http://www.python.org
Home/page: Foo
I don't think the Extension field is necessary if there is a promise
that standard fields won't ever include slashes.

Martin
