The outcome of that was basically that the WebKit folks wanted innerText to be some sort of complicated prettyprinting thing (which is nothing like the spec linked above) while Gecko was not all that interested in implementing a complicated prettyprinting thing that wouldn't even be compatible with other browsers' complicated prettyprinting things.
The work already done on this might make including innerText-dependent features more feasible.
innerText is not particularly interoperable even across UAs that implement it, last I checked....
