--- Comment #3 from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson <ian@hixie.ch> ---
As far as (1) goes, specs are never finalised unless they're obsolete and
irrelevant. You're going to be finding bugs and needing to add new features for
years or decades and probably more often than adding new values; if your
process means that the spec is hard to edit, then your process is broken.

Also, note that one of the W3C's most serious problems right now is that it's
not "clear and obvious" what the latest version is. It's usually the editor's
draft, but that's not always linked to from the out-of-date TR/ page drafts;
sometimes the latest version is not even a W3C spec; sometimes, however, the
TR/ page _is_ the most up to date version but it points to an out-of-date
editor's draft; sometimes specs change short name leaving trails of older
versions behind that don't point to the newer versions, etc. It's a big mess.
(The real solution is to just have one URL per spec, but obviously that's out
of scope for this bug!)
