a. there are no ultimatums in our world because standards are a world of
    compromise. Violence - even verbal - is the last refuge for
    incompetence,

b. people never mention their affiliation if not on behalf of their
    parent company,

c. Apple, Mozilla and Opera and full W3C members and therefore their
    representative(s) in the WG speak in their name.

And it's not the right time to discuss what could happen if not
accepted. We have enough to do with reality, let's keep guesswork
for the future.
