However, WHATWG-URL consistently calls it `username`, putting the URL portion of the RFC at odds with the WHATWG-URL spec. Calling it `username` would be more in line with the spec. That would likely mean calling it `username` in the URI portion of the RFC as well.
This makes sense to me. The WHATWG URL standard uses `username`, RFC 3986 uses `user`, but considers that deprecated in favor of the generic `userinfo`. `user` along might be somewhat ambiguous since it could refer to the entire `userinfo` section or to just the part before the first colon.
