I did look at the proletext proposal, and it is interesting. If
Format=Flowed is a success, I think it would be worthwhile to then
consider advancing proletext or something like it, as an additional
format type. But I think we should get F=F deployed first.
Is the proletext proposal something that would be upward-compatible
with the current F=F draft? Or can it be made so? The last thing
we need to do is progress the current draft, and then go look
at a subtly different scheme from proletext - you *know* that at
least one major vendor will attempt to re-use the display engine
and Get It Very Wrong if it's incompatible. ;)
