Browser implementor friends: Can you give me specifics about why "XML namespaces are terrible"? Concrete please.
@tabatkins The problem with `-` is that "ember-foo-bar" and "foo-bar-baz" are ambiguous. No clear delineation between NS and tag name.

@wycats Yeah, no argument there. That's a non sequitur as a response to my OP, though. ^_^ -
@tabatkins Twitter is hard :P The fact that document.createElement restricts tag names makes it hard to experiment. `:` maybe only option? -
@wycats I think you can still use _, no? : isn't useful; it's treated badly by the parser. -
@tabatkins In the case of Ember, we're converting HTML templates into a series of `createElement` etc. calls, so we can make small tweaks

@wycats@tabatkins given how constrained `-` usage is in official vocabularies it seems sufficient for namespacing: http://w3c.github.io/webcomponents/spec/custom/#dfn-custom-element-type …Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
