Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: This seems like something for the CSS spec. We could say something
about the <header> and <footer> elements becoming headers and footers, but that
would just open a can of worms of questions so long that we'd be updating that
section for months until finally just removing it and pointing to CSS. So I
think we're better off just pointing to CSS.

(Questions would include such things as "what happens when the header is big",
"what if the header contains a plugin", "what if the header is position:fixed",
etc.)
