[[

For example, the activation behavior of an HTML or SVG <a> element shall
...

For example, if the Event.bubbles attribute is set to false, the bubble
phase shall be skipped, and if Event.stopPropagation() has been called
prior to the dispatch, all phases must be skipped.

RFC2119 keywords in examples is bad style. Please replace RFC2119 keywords
in non-normative sections and examples with other words.

There are three sections (1.2, 1.3 and 6.2.6) that are marked as
normative, and they all use different style. All sections that are
normative should be marked as such, or all sections that are non-normative
should be marked as such, or both.
