I'm not sure that we should count this as just one implementation.

I see two different reasons behind the "two implementations" rule. One is
implementability, and the other is implementer interest.

For something like WebSQL, with all the complexity of SQL and its known
interoperability issues, if everyone is using the same library then it's clear
we have just one implementation (and a problem). For <details>, I think that
argument is much less powerful.

The fact that it still is in both WebKit and Blink (it could have become
disabled in either) IMHO shows interest in supporting it. I reckon we can keep
it.
