The model (even if practice doesn't live up to it) for IEEE and other
formal standards is to codify existing practice.  I don't think
there's enough existing practice out there to standardize on yet.
There are some commercial products (e.g. XVT, Galaxy, and Galaxy is
supposed to be the most 00-like) but in the absence of reasonable
experience with existing practice, I believe formal standardization to
be premature.

p.s.  taking a hint from Henry Spencer, imagine what things would be
like if OS-360 had become the standard operating system...
