Isn't HTML5 going to stick to floats for the video element's pixel aspect ratio ? [1] Does SVG ever need to define this as well ? There may be very good reasons to express aspect ratios in different ways based on industry practice, data formats, the unit being described, existing implementations etc. I have no opinion on which format is better but I'm asking if specs should try to align as authors' lives may be marginally more difficult if some aspect ratios must be set as floats and others as fractions.
