Comment:
Remove the user editing actions section.  Most of these are covered in exact
detail by the editing spec (see the "Additional requirements" section).  One
or two others are covered by the Selection part of DOM Range.  The rest are
not really interesting enough to be worth speccing anywhere at this point,
IMO, certainly not at this low level of detail.

mass-move component to LC1
Comment 2 Shelley Powers 2011-08-11 19:08:33 UTC
As noted in http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13429 I disagree vehemently with breaking up pieces of HTML5 and yanking them out of the W3C space. 

I strongly recommend that the W3C not ignore this issue. 

I also strongly recommend that the W3C freeze out any WHATWG members from doing any further edits to HTML5. They're not willing to cooperate with others, and this move shows they have little or no respect for the W3C. Their actions undermines the W3C's credibility.
Comment 3 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2011-08-25 23:39:34 UTC
I've removed most of this but some stuff remains. Please take a look and let me know whether the remaining sections are covered by something in the other specs already, or if you think they should not be covered.

Comment 5 Aryeh Gregor 2011-08-28 17:06:45 UTC
I've filed bug 13936, bug 13937, and bug 13938.  Tell me if you think this doesn't cover everything remaining in the HTML spec.
Comment 6 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2011-09-24 00:05:01 UTC
Is there anything covering the sentiment behind "User agents may add DOM changes to the undo transaction history of the editing host's Document object each time an action is triggered." in the new specs?
Comment 7 Aryeh Gregor 2011-09-27 19:20:37 UTC
Maybe in Ryosuke's.  I haven't read his spec and don't currently reference it at all (see bug 13930).
