I agree it shouldn't be in 1.0. I don't like the idea of "standard
extensions". I see that getting out of control, and I can hear down the road
view-makers saying "well we are already use pointsound and ambientsound...
why not keep them??"..etc.
Lets go for a 1.1 or 1.5 or whatever notion you like. Till then, lets leave
it completely out. I don't think it is as big of a step as behaviors (a
definite 2.0) yet I agree that we should take some time on it.
