Well, there has to be *some* agreed upon means for defining these 
parameters. SDP is being used because that is what there is, even though 
it is far from ideal. Certainly something else could be used, but then 
that needs to be defined. I guess you are arguing that this partition 
the definition, separating semantics from syntax. While that is 
certainly possible, it probably won't make the job simpler.

What is needed is a concrete proposal.
