Does x-wife refer to my wife or my x? :-)
Of course, e- values doesn't have the same problem as with x- values.
x- values must never be registered so as that no registered value
will conflict with a private extension. Of course, private extensions
might conflict with each other, but that's a different matter.
It was my intent to reserve e- to make it clear for all as to
which guidelines/procedures apply.
I note that e-commerce-auth could just as easily be named
eCommerceAuth or eCommerce-Auth.
