That doesn't seem either scalable or documentation/implementation
friendly. It means that someone reading the X feature spec (to
implement it, to use it or to review it) will have to also go look at
the HTML spec. And know that he/she needs to do so. And it means that
the development of the X feature spec is blocked on getting the
attention of the HTML spec authors.

Isn't this the reason we adding "partial interface" to WebIDL?
