EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are
satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If
you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please
reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML
Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest
title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: User agents are naturally incentivised to follow platform
conventions, but should not be required to do so, since they may have perfectly
good reasons for doing entirely different things. It's out of scope of the
specification to require behaviour that is not a factor for interoperability.
