I don't have enough knowledge of the feedback that Ian as received,
nor am I aware of the relevant use cases driving this change.
I would have to disagree, then, unless I see a more comprehensive
proposal. Ian doesn't have to provide a formal change proposal, but I
don't think it's unreasonable to ask to see more than

In response to implementor feedback and based on a brief discussion with
Maciej, I will be adding a specification for the oft-discussed doc=""
attribute on <iframe> to the HTML5 spec in the near future."
