The reason I mentionned such a group is that there's a chance that it might get created in the close future and start work on precisely this sort of API, I would expect in a fast-paced manner. While nothing is settle at this point, I have reason to hope that it's not a "oooh, let's create a WG for this" thing. > The questions that begs is, is the W3C bureaucracy justified?

The major problem I've found is that finding people to do actual work on specifications and test suites is hard. Way too often WGs are short on workforce as too few people can commit time to get things done. -- Robin Berjon Senior Research Scientist Expway, http://expway.com/
