Yes. We need a C-D.

It can be "render" if we want it to be. But I think that brings some 
baggage that we could do without. In particular, "render" is the default 
C-D for any C-T that isn't defined to have some other C-D as its default.

I am really now thinking that the info package type is really a 
"sub-disposition-type" - an extension to the disposition type namespace 
that is independently managed. And then we provide the means to 
negotiate use of those in INFO.
