Default Temperature ratings in wood-fired ovens

I came across this on the Internet today, and it has me thinking. We need a standard method of describing heat in a wood-fired oven, ranging from warm to very hot. Now that we have finished V1.0 of the Cooking e-Book, I can see that this will help.

Can we come up with a wood-fired version of this?

Their "very hot" isn't very hot.
