Description Maciej Stachowiak 2010-03-25 03:57:33 UTC 
Consider including issue markers in drafts for issues that have been closed without prejudice. Based on a suggestion from Larry Masinter in bug 9187.

I see no purpose to doing so.

I'd like issue markers to indicate things where people have actual proposals or are actively working to produce one.  I see no need to indicate inline places where there might (or might not) be future work in subsequent releases of HTML.

I agree. While there may be value to exposing a list of ideas for the future, inline markers in the draft do not seem like the most effective or useful way to do that.

Rejected per agreement of the Chairs.
