Comment:
&lt;meter&gt; should work better with microdata. It would make sense to use value
attribute as property value. It would be useful when a property takes value
from known range and it is represented as a gauge, for example &lt;meter
itemprop=score min=0 max=10 value=8&gt;quite good&lt;/meter&gt; (if md vocabulary
specifies &quot;score&quot; to take value between 0 and 10). Other attributes of &lt;meter&gt;
wouldn&apos;t be represented in microdata, separate property elements (probably
&lt;meta&gt;) would  be needed if range needs to be represented in md. &lt;progress&gt; is
less likely to be useful with microdata since it is mostly intended for use by
scripts, but it makes sense to treat it in same way for consistency with
&lt;meter&gt;. &lt;param&gt; should use value attribute for microdata too.

    <thetext>&lt;meter&gt; makes sense, I&apos;ve added that.

&lt;progress&gt; and &lt;param&gt; I don&apos;t understand. Can you elaborate?

(Making &lt;progress&gt; and &lt;meter&gt; similar is actually a non-goal; they both exist precisely to avoid them being treated the same.)</thetext>

    <thetext>Checked in as WHATWG revision r7966.
Check-in comment: Add &lt;meter&gt; to microdata, and &lt;meter&gt; and &lt;progress&gt; to the table sorting algorithm.
