As for market success, it is extremely unlikely that anything in the a new version of HTML will have close to the same market success before we even reach LC as a feature in an existing version of HTML. The best counter example I can think of is <video> which has arguably been extremely successful, at least if you count the amount of press it is getting. However even <video>s market success currently pales in comparison to even the most mundane features of HTML4 if we look at the amount of usage it has. As for maturity, how do you measure that? / Jonas
