Absolutely, implementation experience is very important in spec
design, I believe. As long as the the implementors take care to shield
WD functionality from REC functionality, I see no harm. This is how
both Mozilla and Prince supports multi-column layout today:
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol
The draft notes, in the status section, that "Several implementations
have occurred over the past year, and this draft incorporates useful
feedback from implementors as well as authors and users."
Your opinion is different?
