IPP> MOD/PRO - simple proposal for providing dictionary-like

We did talk about future IPPv2 encodings and transports, but no formal
WG concensus was declared since it wouldn't have been appropriate when
we don't even have version 1.0 documents at "proposed" yet.

	As I said below - this was an informal consensus. Everybody I
spoke to about
	it said that they thought that we would have to do XML to handle
things like
	dictionaries, etc.


	Yes it completely breaks compatability - this is why I raised
the issue as
	strongly as I did. I still think that the Maui decision was
wrong (but that
	is water under the bridge now).
