Well, rough consensus is one criteria. Not making a
``significant'' number of packages instantly buggy is another.
Getting things to work first, ironing out all the kinks, and then
coming up with the policy proposal also helps.

Since the web browsers have not implemented the requisite
changes, this proposal is unlikely to be accepted unil they do.

Because any package which follows the proposal would be buggy,
since those images shall not actually be accessible.

Creating computer software is always a demanding and painstaking
process -- an exercise in logic, clear expression, and almost
fanatical attention to detail. It requires intelligence, dedication,
and an enormous amount of hard work. But, a certain amount of
unpredictable and often unrepeatable inspiration is what usually
makes the difference between adequacy and excellence.
