This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
The main element is a newly specified feature that has broad support from the community. It has been accepted by the WG for FPWD it has solid use cases and data based support evidence. It is therefore requested that it be added to HTML 5.1. https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/html-extensions/raw-file/tip/maincontent/index.html
Steve, if it's not asking for too much: it would help if you prepared a fork from the GitHub master branch in your own GitHub account and then prepare the changes that you would like to see to the spec there. When done, you can just create a pull request. That would make our lives as editors much easier.

There are a few issues with the pull request; I'm working with Steve on solving them.
Nice. FWIW: I thought the branch should be off "master" and not off "FPWD51".
