hey, i'm for whatever works for someone...  i just have my opinion as to
what is best for most people in most situations.

it should be made clear that the approach above is really only suited to
LMS...  and it trusts LMS to do things, rather than forcing it via
explicit tags.  again, its great if that works for you, and if you don't
ever want to use anything EXCEPT LMS, but i prefer a universal approach
where i force behavior via explicit tags, esp if it works in all
software out there.

there's other things i could point out, like the string conflict bug,
but again, i am not saying your way if it works for you is wrong, i am
simply saying my way is guaranteed to work in LMS and pretty much
everything else.
