Yes - we discussed that fairly extensively in the meeting and it was  
decided that this kind of categorization should be part of the  
'value'. (And the long-term solution is to use an element for user- 
defined metadata.) This is a short-term shim and we didn't want to add  
structure into the short-term solution, we want to add structure into  
the later solution.
