Support for '<expire>' and '<send expire='?

Do you intend to add support for this form of tag?

I'm guessing it isn't supported because:

A 20000: ( 4172) MXP element: <EXPIRE Exits>
E 1023: ( 4172) Unknown MXP element: <expire>
A 20000: ( 4172) MXP element: <SEND href="north" expire=exits>
W 5015: ( 4172) Unused argument for <send>: expire="exits"
A 20000: ( 4172) MXP element: </SEND>
A 20000: ( 4172) MXP element: <SEND href etc.

If this is wrong, then please tell me otherwise. The code that causes this looks something like:

<expire exits>
...
<send href="north" expire="exits">North</send> etc.

I seem to recall talking about an expire tag ages ago with Zugg. I think the idea was to expire a hyperlink (eg. North) because it would no longer apply if you move, and there isn't a north exit any more.

However it is not currently in MUSHclient.

Really, the MUD server should use the <supports> tag to find which attributes are supported by the client, and not send it if it isn't supported.

Sorry if I didn't make myself clear the first time..

I'm implementing MXP on my mud, and I've noticed that MUSH does support these tags.

Do you have any plans to add support for them in the future?
