       2. No style properties in attributes (STYLE="...")

    The argument for (2) is that it leads to bad design. It may also be a
    little bit less efficient for future sophisticated browsers. But some
    people want this facility, so I guess we just have to accept this in
    HTML.

It seems to me that IETF WGs work on a consensus basis.  I don't believe
there is a consensus on a STYLE attribute.  Some people oppose it quite
strongly.  Therefore, it should be removed.  "Some people want this" doesn't
cut it!
