Who benefits from such a dance? I'd rather stick to something stable and universal. I'm don't run with the hardcore REST crew, but those people have discussed media types at length - often in the context of versioning HTTP APIs. If I recall correctly, they usually recommend custom media types to look like this: application/vnd.<...>;version=<...> (personally, I abhor[1] the "vendor" thing, and would rather see "text" than "application", but I'm not sure whether there's actual consensus around those things). I look forward to TW5 joining the ecosystem as Yet Another Tiddler Handler.
