Y'know, I greatly dislike this. It's an actual emotional reaction. This should not be standardized. No one should use this. This is a bad idea and deserves to die in obscurity.
I'll tell you why, it's pretty simple. The characters this... thing is stealing, exist to represent invisible control sequences. That is their use. The fact that they can be mentioned by direct input is inevitable, but not to be encouraged.
I will be greatly disappointed if this is accepted as a standard. The fact that a USV file looks like a rendered ASV file is a show stopping bug, an anti-feature, an insult to life itself. Kill it with fire.
- quesera 3y agoI can't disagree. I know we're not supposed to do low-brow dismissal here, but everything about this idea is wrong. Rationale, solution, representation, everything.
