You want me to be clear?  Fine.  I got an email from somebody asking me the
origin of this feature.  After investigating, I found that it was added to the
W3C draft well after after the cut-off, and furthermore to date I have found
absolutely no evidence that there was any discussion in the W3 working group
about this feature.

I did not say anything remotely like that.  The chairs are still discussing
this, and may very well come to a different conclusion.

What I want: features added to the W3C draft to be discussed by the W3C WG. 
Given that we have bugzilla notification routed to public-html, this can be as
simple as requesting that any new feature be recorded in bugzilla.
