    This is definitely a good idea.

      This is great. Standardisation doesn't always have to mean 1 solution.

          very reasonable and reduces unnecessary duplicate work

            Great idea. Put it in an envelope, stick it in the time machine and send it back a few years.

              Great idea. Let's produce the optimal specs recursively by making a new version o fthe specs, putting it in an envelope and sending it back a few years. We should be getting the best possible standard that way about... now. \o/

                  This move should be the standard in Linux development. Give a common and uniform specification and then derive the software from it. This would incredibly help common work and reduce unnedeed duplicate work.

                    The proposed specification is based on KWin/Plasma interaction. So it's actually the other way around. I seriously doubt that this will become a standard as is.
