Just click the interface name, and if it links to the "12.3.4 Other elements, attributes and APIs" section, you know there's an obsolete bit to worry about. Generally though I don't want to raise the visibility of the obsolete section any more than that. 27838 2 zcorpan 2009-09-29 10:56:29 +0000 That only works in the WHATWG single-page version, not the multipage version or the W3C version. Also, it is not particularly discoverable; an implementor working on a feature is likely to completely miss the obsolete section. It doesn't necessarily have to be a link, it could be just <span class=impl>/* There are further members to this interface defined in supplemental interfaces */</span> or something. 27849 3 ian 2009-09-29 11:14:22 +0000 Editing that would be a maintenance nightmare. I really don't want to go there. I don't buy that implementors are going to have that much trouble with this — in practice, most already have the obsolete section done, and the test suite will cover it, so new implementors will find out soon enough when they try to implement the spec.
