This seems like a standard without an audience, as ES5 is becoming
official well ahead of HTML5. Who needs HTML5 on ES3?
I'm not sure what you're getting at here. WebIDL isn't just for HTML5,
it's used throughout WebApps and DAP, and by a number of other groups
as well, which have deliverables at various levels of completion. By
depending on WebIDL, a lot of these cannot move forward along the
process until WebIDL itself moves ahead.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not in the least hostile to an ES5 binding. I
just don't want to rush into it and have a knock-on effect on the
timeliness of a bunch of other people's work.
