This has been discussed several times by the WG, and while we like the idea it's pretty much a v2 thing. So why is that? It's not like we can move the current specification that fast to W3C Recommendation. It's also that if we don't do it now v2 isn't so much about cleaning up anymore... rather more reverse engineering. -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/ http://www.opera.com/
