Flutterby™! : Snark it up

I'm on the Structured Blogging mailing list, and at some point I'd like to hack some better metadata features into Flutterby, I'm a big believer in publishing more than just what the user can see. But the best proposal I've seen lately is one that suggests that we snark it up:

What I think is missing from this discussion is an underlying framework to measure snarkiness. Doc Searls had the idea of a snarkiness slider; however, how will Technorati and others determine the level of snark?To this end, I want to introduce the HyperText Snarkup Language (HTSL) which will initially be described as simply an extension of XHTML with a namespace. This will allow publishers to have full control over their snark.

The tag set looks pretty simple:

<snarkup:snark target='href' level="low|medium|high" tone="even|sarcastic|abrasive|ironic|unhinged" subtext="none|veiledsuckup|allingoodfun|threatened" >

And

<snarkup:jumpthesnark href='href'/>
