That's a good one.

But I did not propose a new standard.  I just suggested a way to
preserve placement info in the netlist, preserving a lot more info than
just what Spice does.

Meanwhile .. we have all those posts about xml, json, and others.  You
might say that those are existing standards, but in this context they
are not, any more than C-like, lisp-like, and others might be standards
for this application.
