This discussion must have been off-list, or on some other list, so I'm
not aware of the idea here.

Do we want to start adding official reference implementations? I'd
rather we try to make the spec good enough on its own and solve any
ambiguities on a case-by-case manner. Reference implementations are a
cop-out IMO.

We can drop the naming discussion. But I think the above issue needs to
be resolved, as does the issue of how future version numbers should be
handled. Since it's just you and Peter Rosin who have implemented this
extension, I'd say you're in a best position to specify the handling so
that it doesn't break anything existing.
