Are there any plans to bring list headers from HTML3 into HTML5? They'd

You can do this in HTML5, using <figure> and <legend>:
<figure>
<legend>A header for the list</legend>
<ul>
<li>List item</li>
<li>List item</li>
<li>List item</li>
</ul>
</figure>
Since figure is a sectioning root, a heading element could also be used
here and it wouldn't affect the outline. Please add an example of this
use case to the spec.
