I wasn't planning on putting in the work unless others thought it was

anything about the feature's deployment, but I'd venture to guess that
it's not so widespread that the number of misuses would be too
significant in absolute terms.
VTTCueRender use counter for Chrome:

6 6 'subtitles'
7 5 "thumbnails"
8 3 'captions'
9 1 "dotsub"
10 1 "${assettracktype}"
11 1 'subtitle'
We could add "subtitle" as a new keyword if that turns out to be a problem.

Thanks for the data! Looks like we're talking on the order of 0.001%
of pages, so I think this can be safely landed.

Do you still intend to do some analysis to see whether this will be a problem in real life? We have somewhat of a history in shipping changes that break compatibility, and then end up doing dot releases (in some cases). -Original Message- From: dev-platform [mailto:dev-platform-bounces+florin.mezei=softvisioninc...@lists.mozilla.org ] On Behalf Of Aryeh Gregor Sent: Wednesday, May 04, 2016 4:47 PM To: dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org Cc: Philip Jägenstedt ; Simon Pieters Subject: Intent to ship: invalid values behave like "metadata", not "subtitles" Bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269712 Relevant change in standards: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/293, also maybe https://www.w3.org/2015/10/28-htmlcue-minutes.html Bugs filed against other UAs: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=608772 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157311 https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/platform/issues/7426340 / Invalid values for are currently treated as "subtitles" by all UAs, pursuant to old specs.

Sounds good. Thanks for the heads-up. -r On Wed, May 4, 2016 at 6:46 AM, Aryeh Gregor wrote: > Bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269712 > > Relevant change in standards: > https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/293, also maybe > https://www.w3.org/2015/10/28-htmlcue-minutes.html > > Bugs filed against other UAs: > https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=608772 > https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157311 > https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/platform/issues/7426340/ > > Invalid values for are currently treated as "subtitles" > by all UAs, pursuant to old specs.
