I think this is definitely a good idea. I looked briefly at ICE myself a
little while ago, and even though there are parts of it that seem overly
complex, others seem very well thought through.

I'd very much like to see some consensus on what the wrapping DTD should
describe, first of all, though. I'll post a short list of features, and
anyone else should feel free to do the same. Some time towards the end of
this week, I'll correlate the feature lists, and post the combined result to
the list for comments.
