Status: Did Not Understand Request
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: HTML, HTML2, HTML3.2, and HTML4 did not have extension mechanisms of
this nature, and yet multiple independent parties have often experimented with
extensions to HTML over the years. So it's not clear to me why we need anything
to enable that. Could you elaborate further on why experiments (which
presumably are not to be used in production projects) need to be conforming?
