Hi, folks-
It seems to me that there are several badly-needed and important APIs
related to CSS that may not have a high priority in the CSS WG itself,
because of a traditional emphasis on the markup aspects of CSS.
Considering that the WebApps WG is currently being rechartered, and has
the right set of eyes to drive and review API specs, does it make sense
to make a joint Task Force between the CSS and WebApps WGs (and maybe
the SVG WG, which this affects) to handle these deliverables? The FX TF
between CSS and SVG WGs seems to be useful and productive, so this is a
proven model.
Off the top of my head, this would probably include the following specs:
* Fullscreen API
* Selectors API
* Widget Media Feature
* CSS OM
* Font Metric API
If we want to do this, this would mean that all these items should be
put into scope of the WebApps WG charter. (Alternately, we could start
a CSS API WG to focus on these items, also as joint deliverables with
the CSS WG.)
We would also need to determine a chair for this CSS API TF, to really
drive these deliverables.
Thoughts?
Regards-
