For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Additional Information Needed Change Description: No spec change. Rationale: It's an interesting idea. Would you be interested in pursuing such a feature in an extension specification? http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ExtensionSpecifications I note that there's already an extension spec which enhances <form> features. Perhaps you could coordinate with its editor? http://cameronjones.github.com/form-http-extensions/index.html
