I think all the functionality provided in the demos I've seen is already
going to be provided in tap 4.1, just with better components ;)

They do look cool though. It's debatable whether or not the data in the
forms should be stored as full fledged xml documents. Maybe it's a good open
way to provide access to it, I just don't like the idea of inefficiences it
might entail. The data is already "in the forms" in most instances, but it
could be a good idea...

The whatwg site seems to be down, but I know the w3c is trying to establish
the next wave of support for these things here
http://www.w3.org/2006/webapi/.

Still, I do very much like the idea of the data being easily available in a
standard format on the client. We'll have to see if a client side api can
make this more usable, or if a universal document format is better?
