There's a "demos" field in the boxes where people can put demos showing how to
do this. In general I'm reluctant to give an "official" way in the spec because
each browser might have different subtleties, and the implemented reality and
the specced convergence goal might not be quite in sync, etc. However, if
anyone would like to offer a Web service that a script could ping and display
information inline, I'd be happy to do that. That's what the status boxes do,
for example: they ping a service which returns information about each section
and then the boxes are generated from that.
