I'm not proposing to get rid of that functionality.
My proposed use case is this:
- I sign up for an account with, say, UPS. - I add the RSS feed, say, http://www.ups.com/users/teferi/packages.xml to my aggregator. - When I get the tracking number for a package, I log in to UPS's website and add that package to the list of packages I'm interested in. - UPS provides status updates to all the packages I'm interested in via RSS (clearing packages after they're delivered, of course)
I think this works better than per-package RSS feeds, because it means I don't have to add a new feed every time I'm concerned with a new package.
