   Noting some issues and background on this.

   • @gRegorLove used it as an aspirational property(Wants to Watch), whereas all other usages are passive(Watched).
   • @cleverdevil posts https://cleverdevil.io/2019/avengers-endgame-2019, which are not marked up using this property, and are fed from Trakt.

   Trakt is a scrobbling service for movies and TV and has an API. @grantcodes apparently used to do this, but it isn't online at the moment.

   Possible questions include:

   • Like audio scrobbles, should the value be h-cite or url only? Or, as @cleverdevil does, an h-item or h-review?
   • How do you indicate status of completion? See u-read-of/read-status proposed draft #10 where read-status was discussed for the same issue with read posts. We should use a property that carries to all of these types.

   Yep, although my automatic posting tool is currently offline, the code is on GitHub and I have created many watch posts with it.

   I don't use special properties apart from watch-of which is set to the episode / movie url on trakt.tv - I also pass a special trackt property with all the data from the api, which is probably bad practice :P

   I would say the content of the u-watch-of should probably only ever be a url orh-cite. Reviews could be in the content of your post or the content of the cite.

   I don't think it makes sense to have a different property for a listen status, read status & watch status. If they all shared the same property with values like future, in-progress & complete (for example) that would probably cover all use cases. EDIT: Oops didn't realise this was already a separate issue: #18

   Agree @grantcodes a progress status that can work for any media type.
