We should not encourage other specifications to reference an unimplementable and unimplemented specification. And we should not publish such specifications in the first place. I would rather see more resources spent on the current revision of Web IDL, and abandon v1 entirely as a historical artifact that serves no value. I believe I raised these concerns last time a call for publication of Web IDL level 1 was issued, with if I recall no response.
