The browser vendors still control the situation. W3C can come up with very socially responsible standards, but they don't do what the browser vendors think will make them money, they will be ignored. In fact, in the area of HTML particular, somewhat less in CSS and not at all in SVG, it seems to me that W3C is already out on a limb in turns of stressing socially responsibility over commercial expediency.
