I definitely would like that.

I think there are simple, practical reasons to increase the abbreviations we
use in at least some places.

I was planning to do a new profiles draft this week, I guess I could take a
stab at this for one of them and see what might need to be said. I can't
think of very much unless metadata factors in more prominently than it has
so far. Liberty's profiles are very explicit about the use of metadata, but
I didn't go quite that far yet.
