I do not think the way that was phrased will ever give us good  
interoperability or will give a clue to new web browsers what they need to

Though maybe to address that a separate registry is needed just for web  
browsers -- as I suggested in the past -- to avoid clashing with others  
who do not wish to update their code to match.
