Many features are now in separate specifications / drafts, linked to in the introduction you reference. It doesn't mean they're dead, indeed web storage has been implemented by a number of browsers as have other features listed there such as geolocation, websockets, etc. Don't read too much into it. HTML5 is a single specification, it doesn't mean that it's the only specification browsers support. For instance, all browsers support CSS - CSS is not in the HTML5 specification, it's a distinct specification. There are many logistical advantages etc, again, don't read too much into it.
