Sorry if I wasn't clear. What I was trying to say is that optional is good enough but not my preference. My preference would be that <keygen> be specified in a separate document. I agree that browsers that choose to support <keygen> should work the same way. I think that introducing optional features into the main HTML5 spec isn't ideal but I don't have strong feelings against this.

Cheers,
