It doesn't seem to make sense to force someone to pull a file that they 
may or may not want (and may or may not exist) in order to find out 
where something, possibly completely unrelated, lives.

I don't mind using that approach when related HTML exists, but as it 
relates to my implementation, it doesn't always exist and I don't see a 
clearcut reason why we should force it to exist.

On the other hand, we're doing exactly what this proposes to solve for 
using OCS and a predictable file location. Happy to extend the discovery 
mechanism (easy) but not too crazy about having to take another format 
into consideration on behalf of my users.

Why isn't OCS "good enough" to do this?
