I also don't want to imply that a vote is imminent, just that this is
such a big issue, it can not be decided by mere consensus on a
mailinglist. Not everyone follows these discussions (not that everyone
reads the wiki though, but again, this is a major thing).

Maarten

I didn't mean to convey or imply that a vote was impending, moreso
that I seriously disagree with the proposal as unneeded, unnecessary,
poorly explained as to its benefits, and (as was well described
before, though I paraphrase), "a ready-made answer for a non-problem."
My apologies if anybody got the wrong impression that this was up for
a vote. Rather, here and now it is being discussed, my "No" was
merely my opinion IF it went to a vote. Better stated, I disagree
with the proposal, as I see no need for it, it is over-engineered, it
has no clear merit, it is confusing, it seems to be more trouble than
it is worth and I feel it would chase away novice volunteers as "too
complex." The consensus, with the exception of the proposer, seems
100% in line with my opinions. I do welcome more discussion, that's
why we type here.

The discussion below spawned the following idea of migrating the whole
tags system instead.
(an over engineered proposal largely, as Frederick says and I agree
with, goosed by the "hype of linked data.")
I politely vote "No." I don't see the merit (again echoing
Frederick). While I'm only one person and one vote and perhaps a bit
more vocal than most, I feel it important to express the opinion of
"very strongly against."
I certainly hope that if this idea goes towards implementation that
there will be a vote first. I also don't see the merits so my vote
will also be no.
Before going to vote it would need to demonstrate some sort of clear
benefit and
consensus that it is reasonable.
Vote can be gamed in many ways, and even if that proposal somehow
would won a vote
it still would not improve it a tiny bit.
