For object currently these element specific attributes are defined: data type name usemap width height Later in the text some attribute 'classid' is mentioned: '1. If the classid attribute is present,' ... How could it be present if object has no such attribute and no such attribute is defined in the complete draft as an unspecific attribute? Or is it? I did not find it with a search of the browser. Maybe the first paragraph named '1.' in 4.7.5 can be completely skipped in the draft to avoid the confusion? If there is an attribute 'classid', it should be obviously defined and the purpose of this additional attribute should be explained to the audience including an explanation of its possible values or are this the same values as for 'data' as in HTML4? But than it seems indeed to be pretty redundant and should be skipped completely as done obviously already for some other attributes of object available in HTML4 but not any more in HTML5 (by the way, why is 'declare' missing, this sounds pretty helpful to start objects without the need of scripts or internal controls in the referenced object?)
