What I'd like to see, based on what I know now, is 'text/html' become
a MIME content type and the WWW code retrofitted to handle MIME
documents as a base type. Then essentially a raw HTML document would
become the degenerate case for WWW (implicitly text/html).
It is important that other datatypes can be inlined in a document,
which is what MIME allows (as opposed to just allowing ordinary links
to GIF files, or something similar).
