Hi Mark,

It seems an interesting proposal, currently we use the Link header with an `templated="true"` property. I have a two questions:

 - Am I correct in assuming that the variables are defined by the media type documentation for the returned Content-Type?
 - If so, wouldn't it make sense to leave the var-base out of the specification, given that people defining media types are free to add parameters and are free to define rules about how to resolve the variables? 

Best regards,

Max Maton
