Reach consensus on a solution, have the editors add it to the spec. Business as
usual!

That's correct — as per the WG decision policy, pushing a bug to be resolved
later is "Rejected" but only for HTML5. It's not rejected for future versions
(I do find this confusing, I would rather we said "Deferred" or some such).

Yes indeed, please keep providing all the input needed to solve these issues
for all bugs moved to HTML.next.
