Would you be happier if, instead of saying a number of bits should be reserved, I said that there should be a maximum of four different possible modification values, with one of them being a default (such that it could be represented in a maximum of 2 bits if a protocol so desired)?
The JSON protocol would clearly ignore the hints.

How would that map to the JSON protocol, for instance? It seems like we've arrived at some consensus. Should we create a new issue for making type modifiers and get to work? -Bryan
