A couple of quick points:
"Localhost is hard to protect" says "may be possible to exploit to "port-scan" the particular hosts". I think that needs a slight rewording.
What's not clear about that? You want me to elaborate on what port-scanning is or why letting port-scanning happen can be a problem?
I had never heard of WHATWG - perhaps a link to https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/tag/whatwg/ (etc) might be helpful.
Right, thanks. Yes I should probably linkify better to both WHATWG and its URL spec.
FYI: WHATWG is a sort of standards organization, similar to W3C and IETF. It was created by a bunch of browser vendors and they have a strong browser focus with participation representation from all the major browsers.
