Actually, the LOCATION property in vCalendar ought to be polymorphic. It ought 
to have a default of the string type you give, but ought also to be able to 
have a value that is an URL that points to the vCard definition for the 
location. This is a clear requirement that we are hearing from 360 
degrees...okay, maybe 350 degrees.


This polymorphism is one of the killer requirements making the DATATYPE 
argument of yours very difficult to accept.
