We have received feedback from some implementers that a subset of the test cases in our test suite [1] aren't really testing spec compliance, and that a pass or fail depends on implementation details that are outside the scope of the current specification. Specifically, some of the test cases are based on using the setupDevice() function to return specific values from the location provider and then check that those exact values are passed through the JavaScript API. The specification does not say anything about how position values should be converted to JavaScript, and these test cases therefore do not test for actual spec compliance. If there is general agreement about this I propose that we remove those test cases from our test suite that report a pass or fail based on checking against an expected numerical parameter value.
