I proposed a more general version of the ABNF earlier today; however,
Adam's comment that a space-delimited list of values is the easiest
to parse and most consistent with other SDP attributes makes me
reluctant to switch to a more complex syntax absent assurances that
it wouldn't add extra complexity.

There is not much to say about most airplane journeys. Anything
remarkable must be disastrous, so you define a good flight by
negatives: you didn't get hijacked, you didn't crash, you didn't
throw up, you weren't late, you weren't nauseated by the food.
So you're grateful.
