Consider Param=paramvalue;param2=paramvalue:To be, or not to be: that is the question: and To be, or not to be: that is the question: If we DON'T start with a colon, what heuristic should I use to distinguish between these? Clearly, in this example, the whitespace and lack of an equals means parsing for parameters will fail, but if I used tobe=ornottobe: instead, there'd be no way to know. If values without parameters started with a colon, it would be easy to see parameters coming, the latter would start with a colon, the former wouldn't.
