So can we nix both of those? ;) I believe Firefox right now supports the legacycaller but but not .tags. 99916 7 bzbarsky 2014-02-06 16:23:44 +0000 From the Chromium bug cited in comment 5: We got 0.001% for our DocumentAllTags UseCounter. Conclusion: Safe to remove. 99934 8 ian 2014-02-06 19:35:14 +0000 That's fantastic. Removed! 99935 9 contributor 2014-02-06 19:35:22 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r8469. Check-in comment: Remove some parts of document.all that data shows have virtually no usage. http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=8468&to=8469 100441 10 bzbarsky 2014-02-12 21:24:45 +0000 More from blink-dev: FWIW, this number is wrong. Looking at Chrome's latest stable release on Windows, DocumentAllLegacyCall is used on 0.03% of sites. We've still been figuring out what the lower bound is on features we can safely remove, so this is a useful data point that 0.03% is likely too high. 100449 11 ian 2014-02-12 22:57:15 +0000 Reopening to track likely reversion of at least the legacycaller stuff. :-( 101155 12 contributor 2014-02-21 22:12:49 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r8502.
