This is no better or worse than "#EXTM3U" for .m3u playlists, so i don't think there is any problem here now. As for the URIs themselves, i wasn't yet speaking of "open" use of them (outside of .mlq files), but only within them, so this change of the file magic should prevent problems with anything else that might use a query:/// URI in their file formats. -- Milosz _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
