No (which is one of the reasons it's still in CR). CSS3, and any other modular spec, says exactly that, however. Typically this is done because there are multiple constituencies in the specification process which have only somewhat overlapping requirements. The question is whether there are such constituencies for HTML5. -Boris P.S. A multiple-constituency process which does not involve some features being optional begins to look like the fable of the pike, swan, and lobster (or crab, depending on your translation).
