If the spec is too hard to support properly, implementations will not 
contain proper support. IMO that is then a failure of the 
specification. Is MIME too hard? Arguably, yes, in parts. For example, 
it doesn't take a moron to overlook one of the content-disposition 
RFCs. How many programs get filename encoding wrong? (I suspect I do, 
come to think of it.)

what do people think - would a MIME roadmap document be worth the trouble of
writing?
