Nat previously talked about the idea of bundling several attributes 
together into a single namespace rather than assigning a URL to each 
individual scalar attributes. He referred to it as a "class" though you 
might instead want to think of it as a "struct".

As I recall (I can't find the original message right now) the propsal 
went something like:

ns.blah=http://example.com/some-struct
blah.field1=xyz
blah.field2=abc
blah.field3=123

This way the URL is only included once, making the overall message shorter.
