Browsers don't implement all this either in a consistent fashion yet. And I don't think much libraries have taken notice yet, though there are quite a few implementations now, including in Node.js, Java, PHP, etc. It takes a lot of time. For HTML it took about a decade. I suspect this might take longer given that it's more fundamental and subtle changes can have grave consequences.
