with a mood, or a tune (even if it is basically expected for PEP,
nothing should prevent me to post this)
Atom can be used to frame arbitrary content, as far as I'm aware.
Absolutely nothing prevents you from "replying" with a mood element
embedded in Atom. The Atom just buys us all the threadings and post
mobility.
Isn't it blending pubsub with atom too much? I mean, atom is a kind of
content like other which can be in a pubsub item. If we decide to use it
as a container of (in the previous example) mood element (or any kind of
content), why not directly replace item element with an atom entry (if
it can embed the kind of sub-element we want)?
