mainly to focus on the 'user consent'. Of course, a 'finding' that attempts
to constrain the actions of future specifications no matter what is unlikely
to get much attention. The "best practices" in a finding should describe the
actualy requirements ("recipients MUST NOT do X") rather than
the state of the specs that are managed by W3C ("specifications
MUST NOT suggest that a recipient do X").
As general advice, the MUST should be "best practice". And XSLT
SHOULD have defined 'document()' of an image/png to be an
error.
