Where would be a good place to start? As with any new feature, the best place to start is to work out what the underlying problem is (for authors or users). For example, with <progress>, the problem was that there was no progress bar control, and that authors were therefore faking progress bar controls with <div>s and <img>s, which was making the user experience inconsistent with the native UI, as well as making it hard for non-visual users to determine what was going on. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
