Being in OOB doesn't preclude being in an IQ or X context - OOB qualifies 
both. Anyway, IMHO, taking this independently of anything, it would seem that
OOB doesn't fit the bill as it only contains URL and DESC. So some ad-type
namespace may be more appropriate...

Of course, there's always the balance of new namespaces vs current client 
support...
