Re: "Requirements for Powerful Features" strawman.

Do you think that "Powerful Features" belongs as a WebAppSec deliverable – and should be added to our draft charter – or as a TAG finding?

After talking a bit more with Anne and others, I'm coming around to the opinion that we should break the "powerful features" bit out of MIX. In particular, the notion that we need to explain what constitutes a "powerful feature" pushes this right out of MIX in my mind; it was always tangential, and if we need to define the category (and I agree that we do), then MIX isn't the right place for it.

I've slapped together a strawman at https://w3c.github.io/webappsec/specs/powerfulfeatures/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=https://w3c.github.io/webappsec/specs/powerfulfeatures/&k=ZVNjlDMF0FElm4dQtryO4A%3D%3D%0A&r=HU3cThGizwgsko8%2BWBMXZg%3D%3D%0A&m=Uny70yXyxUKM6QderEO9EitGs%2Fm7TkCqYt%2BJnGFSFSo%3D%0A&s=0fcecb0074cfb96997dfb36ca84714e3b5a266f1480943ceb8cb7d410eec3d39> with lots of TODO text. If folks agree that a separate document is worthwhile, I'll remove the copy/pasted bits from MIX, clean up the strawman, and issue a CfC to publish a FPWD.

Thanks!
