That being said, inline spec comments sound interesting. Can you expand

If anybody would like to follow-up on this particular idea, I'm very
interested in setting something up that makes it even easier to submit
comments without having to worry about subscribing to the lists or
registering with the W3C's Bugzilla instance. I'm not quite sure what the
UI would look like, but if anyone has any ideas, feel free to e-mail me
directly and we can figure something out. (This would be exceedingly
useful once we're in last call in a few months.)
I remember having some discussion about such a thing in IRC a few months
ago. Indeed, the biggest problem seems to be what sort of UI we could
use for it.
My proposal, on the whole, would be to have some box appearing upon
selecting text. Then, in that box, give space for both an email address
and a comment, and send that along with the selected text to the list.
