The main thing that seems to be missing from this thread is any commitment from any browser vendors to actually support any changes in this space. I would recommend the following steps for anyone hoping to push changes to Web specifications on this topic:
- Approach Web browser vendors privately, to see if they are interested in changing their behaviour in this space. - If you find interest, collect up the use cases that you want to address, and post them to this list for discussion. - Collect the input on use cases and try to design a solution that fits all the important use cases, then send an an e-mail to this list proposing a basic design.
