Title: Message
I think
I see your point (I thought of modification as semantic versus syntactic), how
about the following wording (which still puts the Customization issue
aside):
This specification must support common Presentation formats, which are in use today in Net-enabled
applications. In particular:
1.
It MUST support
Presentation Fragments in HTML, XHTML, XML and
WML.
2. It MUST
support JavaScript as an associated scripting language. Such support MUST include a way to support Actions triggered by scripts.
However, it SHOULD NOT be assumed that the Consumer
is aware of the semantics of scripting
elements.
3.
It SHOULD support
embedded binary presentation elements (e.g., Flash, Applets, etc.).
[Optional/Debate: Such
support SHOULD provide a way
to support Actions triggered by such
elements.]
However, it SHOULD NOT be
assumed that the Consumer modifies the binary elements in any way.
I personally
think it makes sense to favor a single technical approach that captures both (2)
and (3), but I also don't see it as a high-level requirement but rather as a
technical preference.
