[Bug 5758] insufficient accessibility fallback for <audio> or <video>

[Bug 5807] User Agent display of title attribute content not defined

[Bug 5821] meta/@scheme missing

[Bug 5822] The headers attribute should be able to reference a td

[Bug 5823] Scope allowable on a td

[Bug 6181] Process table feedback (including headers='" issue)

[Bug 6462] Self-reference and cyclic references in headers=''

[Bug 6494] Make the requiredness about alt more obvious

[Bug 6496] [blocked on aria] Allow <img aria-labelledby> to act as a caption

[Bug 7011] [in off-bug discussion] canvas accessible fallback provision is under specified

[Bug 7144] I am not sure if we are ditching ALT in favour of legend. You don't make this clear here. Some of your alt examples here resemble longdesc, which I am in favour of ditching completely. I'd be interested to see your answer on whatwg list about this

[Bug 7245] canvas

[Bug 7260] Create testsuite for table headers association

[Bug 7362] inclusion of the title as a case where the alt may be omitted is problematic

[Bug 7404] "but only if the element is being rendered" needs to take into account <canvas> descendants if we're making them focusable

[Bug 7539] Since @summary is an official part of the table element, it is no longer obsolete. Suffienct warning language exists in it's definition that this entry should be removed

[Bug 7633] The use of @summary should be encouraged when circumstances warrant

[Bug 7669] Redefining dt and dd, recommend new element as caption for Figure

[Bug 7740] Authoring advice for canvas is bad for accessibility

[Bug 7764] Since the online whitelist entries are namespaces it should not use a prefix match but instead something more complicated as is defined for fallback entries in 6.9.5.

[Bug 7766] Fallback namespace overlap/repetition ignored

[Bug 7767] Atomic update of application cache is not well-defined

[Bug 7775] are the extra events needed when status is checking or downloading

[Bug 7776] rename appcache events?

[Bug 7779] Missing task source for application cache events

[Bug 7781] forbid duplicate online whitelist namespaces

[Bug 7783] appcache download events

[Bug 7784] "cache failure steps" feedback

[Bug 7785] "Expiring application caches" feedback

[Bug 7786] change priority for online whitelist namespaces other than *

[Bug 7792] async on inline script is gratuitously backwards-incompatible, should be ignored

[Bug 7799] If the fragid doesn't match an ID or a name in the document, then surely the browser should revert to doing a text search for the fragid text in the document

[Bug 7800] title attribute: add new attr for machine-readable strings

[Bug 7803] The title element's "value" is earlier defined to be the value of its child text nodes -- not textContent

[Bug 7804] In Firefox and Safari .text returns the value of the child text nodes -- not textContent

[Bug 7806] atom ID element generation for feed entries

[Bug 7834] "If a new element is inserted between the two nodes that define pointer" - s/element/node/

[Bug 7836] Should the name="" of a <map> be unique in the document?

[Bug 7842] No programmatic way to make an HTML document - consider adding createHTMLDocument

[Bug 7843] Please make 'abort', ' loadend' and 'emptied' use "queue a task". Firing them sync is annoying to implement and doesn't seem to solve any problem.

[Bug 7844] Remove "that is in a Document and" when the src attribute is set and when a source is inserted, because there's no reason resource selection shouldn't be run when it's not in the document. Then we also don't have to run resource selection when inserting a

[Bug 7848] MathML version used in HTML5

[Bug 7851] Some (perhaps all) scripts with a for="" attribute should be ignored

[Bug 7855] Define fragment parsing when the context is not an HTML, SVG or MathML node

[Bug 7856] When JavaScript or <canvas> is disabled <canvas> should be treated as an ordinary element and not a replaced element.

[Bug 7858] All the current entries should merge into one current entry in the joint session history. (imagine a series of nested iframes that haven't been navigated, and call go(-1)... it should go back at the top-level, not do something weird with the iframes)

[Bug 7859] Mention under step 1 that it can also be aborted if the user agent has discovered that there is no network available and therefore cannot perform HTTP requests. This prevents dispatching error events when the user is using the application offline.

[Bug 7862] Support Extended Processing Behavior via @profile/@version

[Bug 7878] An attribute to actually find out if something is playing would be nice (.isplaying). Unless I'm wrong currently you can't actually tell if something is playing without setting var with JS when you start to play and you can't go by the playback position s

[Bug 7895] In step 6, it should be allowed (and clear that it is allowed) for UAs to use additional data such as the site TLD to guess the correct encoding

[Bug 7896] Specify pageshow and pagehide events

[Bug 7917] document.close() should attempt to tokenize

[Bug 7918] prefetching: allow site to deny

[Bug 7926] Undefine insertion point if parser on call stack doing anything other than running script element

[Bug 7964] Either change the "properties of an item" algorithm to be tree-order or HTMLPropertyCollection.values to be algorithm-order

[Bug 7971] <base> UA requirements

[Bug 7972] It appears that the steps listed for what to do when reset() is invoked contain a race condition unless step 1 (checking if already marked) and step 2 (marking the form as locked) are performed atomically together.

[Bug 7977] Define whether application/octet-stream with parameters is a type that the user agent knows it cannot render

[Bug 7978] Form foster parenting introduces extra space to layout

[Bug 7992] Original insertion mode concept doesn't work well when SVG with HTML content embedded in non-body context

[Bug 8000] ARIA roles added to the a element should be conforming in HTML5

[Bug 8003] line breaks in attributes (especially title)

[Bug 8035] HTMLAllCollection should inherit from HTMLCollection

[Bug 8036] HTMLOptionsCollection should inherit from HTMLCollection

[Bug 8037] The form controls collection should just be an HTMLCollection instead of having an HTMLFormControlsCollection interface

[Bug 8038] Permit closing tag for new, void elements - for legacy compatibility = XHTML alignment

[Bug 8047] Reflecting floats: The rules for parsing floating point number values return an unlimited-precision (finite in base 10) number. How is it converted to limited-precision IDL attribute types? In particular, what rounding mode is used? and do very large valu

[Bug 8060] Why must class be a set of unique tokens? It's quite common to have duplicates (~0.5% of dotbot pages), and convenient when you're programmatically generating HTML, and harmless

[Bug 8088] Change back the meaning of <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="FOO, BAR">

[Bug 8092] HTMLCollection subclass interfaces are incompatible with static languages

[Bug 8107] I dont think that itemid should be prohibited if there is no itemtype. Several of the use cases would work fine with an id but no type

[Bug 8125] Can it be specified somewhere that script can define a variable named "top" with 'var top' in a global context? This is currently inconsistent across browsers.

[Bug 8137] In the scripting-enabled case, noscript outside head has to be conforming if replaced by its parsed text, but noscript inside head doesn't (so <noscript><meta bogus></noscript> is allowed); they ought to consistently require conformingness. [pt]
