Patrick,
The propose syntax is sexy. Two comments:
- to double-bracket is not an annoying restriction (at least for me it
is not a restriction at all)
- having an empty title in a link does not pose any problem (as far as I
remember my long experience of Web design) even with old browsers. The
only issue I can imagine is to get an empty bubble and it is not the
case with recent browsers supporting bubbles (less than 5 years).
Regards,
JDem
