This seems excellent to me.
I think most developers want to do the right thing when it comes to standar=
ds,=20
and it is only the inflexibility or ambiguity of a standard that means they=
=20
don't.
This heirarchical method lets every client supply all the information they=
=20
have -- nobody has to make a decision to leave something out. The internal=
=20
debate they would have "is my gui version more important than my protocol=20
engine version?" is unnecessary.
