Very cool! Looks like you're making great progress. I don't know that it makes sense for the OpenSeadragon org (such as it is) to adopt ownership of this new format,...

Yeah, that seems like a reasonable integration strategy... relying on URLs has been problematic in other ways (like the fractal generation example you mentioned). One thing to keep in mind...

Cool. Well, perhaps someone will pick it up in the meantime!
