This works well if the authors are sophisticated enough to be aware of the specification. In practice, that's not the case with HTML. That said, the current draft does in fact impose all sorts of requirements on authors while defining what UAs should do if authors violate those requirements. So I'm not sure what we're actually discussing here.... -Boris
