The cited language (still present in the current ED - Nov 4, 2011) states a
normative requirement that UAs "implement the features defined in {...}
specifications _that apply to their conformance class_."

Nowhere in HTML5 is specified which features of {...} specifications apply to
which conformance class. Therefore, this statement is not well defined, and is
not interpretable for the purpose of conformance testing.

For example, which features of "HTML Editing APIs" apply to the
"Non-interacting presentation user agents" conformance class?
