Well it's not lossy that worries me so much (the Infoset is quite
clear on that); rather having to have bInfoset codecs to hand. Today
all I need is an XML parser. With bInfosets I have no idea how many
I'll need. All that value Tim Bray talks about re blame allocation
is eroded when someone tells me I need version X.Y.Z.spK of their
Infoset codec.
