Thanks Ira,
I believe you mean it "would not break"
I am still uncomfortable with "ordinary-cotton paper" but most people (users, developers, etc) should understand with little or no confusion.

Hi Glen,
The term 'stationery' in DPA/PWG/JDF means ordinary paper.
It can have suffixes like '-cotton' or '-linen'. Adding cotton and linen
as top media type values would break compatibility (because suffixes
are automatically stripped in the matching rule).
Cheers,
- Ira
