Status: Rejected
Rationale:

Hi Dieter,

the features you describe do indeed have some value, but they are not being
defined as part of the HTML spec. As you note, some APIs are birthed in other
places.

In this case, the W3C is currently in the process of chartering two groups that
are related to what you describe:

NFC WG
http://www.w3.org/2012/05/nfc-wg-charter.html

SysApps WG (notably: Secure Elements API)
http://www.w3.org/2012/05/sysapps-wg-charter.html

In both cases, while those groups do not formally exist yet the mailing lists
that are listed in those draft charters are already up and running, and open to
the public to join. I encourage you to!
