Gather everything that has been written so far here, and put it into a short 
"use cases and requirements” format. Make sure you include lots of examples of 
sites currently doing this. If possible, include screenshots or show where the 
pain points are in the document. All the details and really good examples are 
here:  

http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/FAQ#Is_there_a_process_for_adding_new_features_to_a_specification.3F

Just follow that and you should be all good. I think it’s best to file this 
with the WHATWG.  

If you get stuck or want us to review your proposal before formally submitting 
it, then just post it here again.
