Many of those issues make the spec practically unimplementable interoperably, pending their resolution (the impact would be too great). I believe they should stay in the document. Publishing it would be totally futile with the assumption that it won't ever matter.
Besides, http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Activity says:

It seems to contradict your last sentence. I know about talks with OASIS and foundation of future-web.org. You surely know more, Shane and WG members. Could you clarify, please?
