It seems highly unlikely this will ever make it into an IETF specification and seems like something that should be in HTML5 instead, especially since it concerns one of the elements defined by HTML5. 28746 1 ian 2009-10-21 11:24:35 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
