My problem with that is that I believe the caption is intended to be
something displayed by a client to a user. Either as a part of a
larger client-generated string, or as it is. Doing something like the
above, or trying to make the values separated by a delimiter means
that the client is forced to parse it up to display it the way they
want. For example, if they wanted to display the caption as:
"Xen System: $CAPTION"
It might break some visual guidelines to have that read:
"Xen System: Hypervisor: QEMU 0.9.1"
which is kinda awkward.
This is a really good point. I fine with this. Especially since we
aren't planning to put anything else there at the moment.
