My question was more about a general class of feature -- constants where the identifier of the constant isn't just the same as the constant value itself (uppercased) -- rather than constants for XML namespaces specifically. But indeed there isn't any concrete need for string constants currently, so OK, they're gone. http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2006/webapi/WebIDL/Overview.xml.diff?r1=1.417;r2=1.418;f=h For completeness, please indicate whether this resolution is acceptable.
