Comment (by iandunn):

 Adding the extra classes is a great idea. I went ahead and committed that.

 I'm open to adding the new taxonomy too, but would like to discuss it a
 bit first. It sounds like the use case for that is a situation where the
 sessions are assigned to a track, but the room assignments don't
 necessarily match the track.

 If that's the only use case, I'm wondering if it'd be better to use the
 new CSS classes to do something like this:

 {{{
 #!css
 .speaker-name1,
 .speaker-name2 {
    background-image: url( developer.png );
 }

 .speaker-name3,
 .speaker-name4 {
    background-image: url( blogger.png );
 }
 }}}

 Granted, that'd be a bit more cruft in the stylesheet, but it'd be less in
 the UI. Since most camps still assign rooms based on tracks, I think that
 might be a better option.

 Or maybe we should label the new taxonomy "Room" or "Location". We might
 want to start collecting that data anyway for the GSoC WordCamp app, and
 it'd be a more structured way to do it than a generic tag. We'd then need
 to add a parameter to the schedule shortcode to build the table based on
 the room instead of the track.
