We already do this. Many people already include multiple <link> tags 
specifying different versions of their feeds. Between that and standard 
auto-discovery techniques, we're generally able to find all the RSS 
files for a given blog.

I guess the proposal under discussion is just a different way of 
presenting that data, or for dealing with it at one level up, on a 
per-site basis, instead of a per-blog basis.
