Yes. This would definitely make a worthwhile addition. 

I argued a bit with Mark Pilgrim over his characterization as RSS 0.9
and 1.0 as being (mutually) incompatible in his classic "The myth of
RSS compatibility" [1]. In retrospect I think he's probably right,
because there isn't actually a schema relating 0.9 to 1.0.

If you included RSS 0.9 in a 1.0/1.1 mapping schema, you could
actually *reduce* the number of incompatible format out there by
introducing 1.1 ;-)

Cheers,
Danny.
