The document evolves... first stuff goes in there as "proposed," and
then folks try it out, and if it works consistently on a few different
implementations, we call it "standard" in the next rev of the spec.

Perhaps this spec document isn't the best place to keep this knowledge,
but until there's a better idea...

  to which I say,
Yes, keep it out of the spec document if you ever wish to finish this
piece of cleanup.  HTML 3.0 is the place for new stuff.  Please.
