* What about the value? Completely unstructured and therefore
unparsable? Your own example for "last-edited" is useless for programs
since it does not fit any known standard for dates.
last-edited was just a random example, I wasn't trying to propose keys
or values.

My question still holds. Should values be unstructured or should wehave structured types (dates, datetimes, numbers, URIs, etc)?
