If browsers can agree on what to implement, update the spec to reflect
that.  If they can't and we don't think they ever will, update the
spec to say behavior is undefined.  Either way, it's no less worthy of
REC-track specification than other preexisting features that are
flawed but in practice not removable from the platform.
