A standardized mess is still a mess, so it can't be dealt with _well_.
If we all agree that it's going to be a mess no matter how it's done,
then the standard should be minimal and extremely simple to maximize
the chance of users doing it right. Your proposal is not simple, is
certainly not minimal, and involves a lot of arbitrary judgments that
you can't seriously expect different people to resolve similarly.
