Are there any plans to bring list headers from HTML3 into HTML5? They'd make a lot of markup patterns simpler and be very very useful when it comes to styling.

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.
