Actually, the alternate behavior already was implemented, and backed out because of *some* sites. AFAIR, Jonas said that it might be possible to revert that change by applying sufficient evangelism. Also, this is not being vague. This is about allowing exactly two behaviors, of which one currently *seems* to be necessary, and the other one would be consistent with HTML4 and the web architecture in general (authoritative metadata). How is this different from the approach in draft-abarth-mime-sniff, which also allows both strategies? -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
