1) I think REO-i0003 is definitely related, but not an answer to the needs
of a standard ROS message type for describing cartesian trajectories.

2) I think you're right, it makes sense to have two separate types of
cartesian trajectories, maybe define a simple purely kinematic
CartesianTrajectory and a CartesianImpedanceTrajectory with impedance
properties. Maybe this would also be a good time to specify a
JointImpedanceTrajectory with variable joint-space impedance.
