As Bjoern pointed out, this functionality is something we have been trying
to get on the web for most of the history of the web. And I think it is
fair to say that we have often pushed to get something accepted. We're
still pushing - it would be useful to solve this longstanding problem.
I don't know if that equates to "rushed". This is discussed elsewhere, and
I don't think it's a very fruitful discussion.

Thanks. This is helpful. More perspectives from different kinds of people
who have tried to use Web components may be important contribution in
deciding whether we have it right enough.
