I would however refrain from requiring implementations on all device classes as a condition to Rec — I think that showing that something works usefully on both a computer and something constrained should be enough.

I realise belatedly that I was thinking an additional thought while writing this but forgot to include it — apparently telepathic interfaces don't quite work just yet.

Yes, I think that while the list isn't intended to be exhaustive we should list TV as well. It's certainly an important usage.
