ISSUE-110 (sandbox-type-owner): Change Control for  text/html-sandboxed media type [HTML 5 spec]

http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/110

Raised by: Julian Reschke
On product: HTML 5 spec

Having different change controllers for text/html and text/html-sandboxed seems to be problematic, when they are indeed defined in the same document.

How would an update to the text/html-sandboxed registration work in case where W3C and WHATWG about text/html?

This *potentially* could be addressed by clarifying the delta between text/html and text/html-sandboxed, and delegating the definition of all but the delta to whatever the text/html media type happens to be (this would affect just the IANA reg).

The *much* simpler fix would of course to have change control in the same organization.
