[Web & TV use cases] HTML5 dialog element for overlay

Hello all,

Just to let you know about the updated HTML5 <dialog> element [1] that
is now being implemented by some browsers. This could be a good
interface for TV design to enable simple on-page interactions without
moving the user to a different page or window.

One of the use cases/requirements this group is currently working on is
a Triggered Interactive Overlay [2] which might partially be addressed
by the <dialog> element and its associated JavaScript functions.

Anyway, just FYI.

Daniel
