FWIW, my "yes" vote to that is based on the repeated statements from just
about all proponents that if we do this, *everything* of that spec is still
completely up for debate. Even high profile WHATWG members have stated on
this list that they don't agree with everything in WHATWG's current HTML 5.

So while the questionnaire's phrasing may be too vague, I trust that that is
unintentional.
