Laura, John, Steve,

I would be delighted to work with PFWG and WAI to directly author
language into the HTML5 specification (as both an integrated section and
stand-alone module -- as was done with RDFa[1][2]). The goal would be to
produce a draft document that goes some way towards addressing your
technical concerns.

I do not see this as a long-term solution to a majority of the process
concerns that each of you have raised, so please note this as an aside
to the conversation currently going on.

Just offering to help, if I may be of assistance.

PS: My time to help draft language is limited, as this is not my day job.
