Why must it die? Browsers have to support it anyway, so documenting it and letting it pass conformance checking seems sensible.

I don't like applets, either. In fact I've never seen a Java applet that wasn't either useless, better implemented in JavaScript, better implemented in Flash or better in a window of its own rather than in a replaced element rectangle. Still, pretending that <applet> doesn't exist won't make applets disappear. :-(

It wasn't about applets that they must die. It was rather about this particular markup. And I'm not sure.
