Isn't the "proper" place the public-html, public-html-a11y or associated 
lists?
I've found to be the WhatWG a worth-while place to discuss, but its 
member-base is limited.

There are many parties that use w3c lists and are not monitoring the 
whatwg list.

I suggest taking the discussion to multiple lists.

As you are aware, you're looking at strong push-back to simply use 
<meta> or <link rel> semantics.
