Jay Goldman (Radiant Core) - we've been working on a Firefox Extension for some time that does Microformat detection and will, one day, do handling of different formats. I've done a bunch of thinking around how to do the UI side of things, so maybe our efforts can end up part of the Fx3 conversation.
