I don't understand how that would work, but it seems counter to what you say
next:

> available in browsers, it should be returned to the specification.

This is going to be true of any widely implemented but unused feature that's
removed from the Web platform. For example, document.createAttributeNS was
recently removed from Blink, but is still supported in every shipping browser I
tested. Should it be added back to http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/?
