These tables should include obsolete elements somewhere, for the benefit of
implementers.  Or at least some such index should be provided.	It's annoying
to have no easily-used index like this when writing tests.

What would such an index have?

Send me an HTML file in the pre-anolis format for a section with whatever it is you want, and I can add it. Contact me on IRC if you want help with it.

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: It's not clear what exactly the reporter wants, and I don't really want to write an index, as that is tedious work. Maybe ms2ger still likes writing them, you might try asking him. :-)

Producing such an index would require me to not be lazy, and if I weren't lazy I wouldn't have asked in the first place.  It was worth a try.
