The current repetition model adds four global attributes to every element: repeat repeat-start repeat-min repeat-max If the repetition model continues to develop over the next few years, that list will increase (e.g. by adding a way to group several templates to use the same template index), and it's already unweildy. Imagine repeating a form control. You might have to put attributes for name, type, value, required, pattern, min, max, step, id, inputmode, onchange... as well as repeat, repeat-start, repeat-min, repeat-max, and any others. Would it perhaps make more sense to create a <template> element? <template repeat-min="1" repeat-max="20" repeat-start="5"> <element/> </template> would be equivalent to <element repeat="template" repeat-min="1" repeat-max="20" repeat-start="5"/> and the repeat attribute will continue to be global. (It will no longer be overloaded with the "template" value.) ~fantasai -- http://fantasai.inkedblade.net/contact
