No one has presented a realistic alternative to Hixie editing the spec as a single version-controlled file that just gets a different preamble in WHATWG and W3C editions. > is this the case?

(And probably won't be until Microsoft joins.) However, for the time being, in my personal opinion, it is unproductive to raise design issues assuming that HTML5 wouldn't be used by this WG. (In addition, I agree with James Graham that it would be "extreme folly" for this WG not to take the HTML5+Hixie package.)
