I know first hand that we don't deal in roadmaps, but should we assign
some priority to fleshing out such a fundamental element as <device>?
<device> was proposed to the DAP WG, not the WebApps WG. Other than that
detailed planning of new features does not really work well. They need to
evolve iteratively and at this point I think we need some kind of
experimental implementation to see whether the feature can work at all.
That will also give us a better idea whether overloading <device> is a
sensible idea. Overloading went pretty badly with <object>. There are some
advantages with <input>, but overall the design is ugly. Maybe here it
makes sense but we should do some prototyping to be sure.
