This is a fine maxim, but it begs the question: what constitutes
a separate, distinct application, vs a modification, profile,
extension, or varation of an old one?

In the case where you're allowed to have a document that mixes
traditional HTML, MathML, Vector Graphics ML, etc., are these
separate "applications" or are they one "application" ("renderable
XML document")?
