My problem with using 'V' for ';' and other switches is that although they
may be more intuitive they also will require altering clients to resupport
extensions they already support for no particular reason. I think ';' is a
dumb designation but it already works. I see no reason to make Cameron
recode the various versions of Overbite or to have the Lynx folks change
their browser because we chose to break with established practice on a whim.

If it seems like there will be some changes anyhow, it wouldn't hurt to go ahead and use 'V'.
