from #1:
> The <progress> element is the only way to get a progress bar that matches the
native look and feel of the platform.
I don't think this kind of reason warrants a new element type. It's a
presentational need and should be solved by styling. Indeed, we're awaiting the
appearance property in CSS which will do exactly that.
Or is there actually some semantic rationale for progress? Is it like WHATWG's
idea of http://www.w3.org/TR/xforms/#ui-range (which, BTW, shows the quoted
statement to be false)?
