For what it's worth, I looked into this in the context of the previous
thread, and this new feature was introduced three "Last Calls" ago, and
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010JulSep/0738.html
at the time there was not much agreement around that "idea". You would
have to look for archived discussions, if any, in late 2009. I certainly
do think a bitfield is a bad choice for this particular feature.
