As I said, this is already used in quite a few places in the HTML spec: - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-dir <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-dir> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-link-as <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-link-as> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-link-referrerpolicy <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-link-referrerpolicy> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-link-updateviacache <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-link-updateviacache> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-a-referrerpolicy <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-a-referrerpolicy> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-img-referrerpolicy <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-img-referrerpolicy> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-iframe-referrerpolicy <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-iframe-referrerpolicy> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-track-kind <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-track-kind> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-media-preload <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-media-preload> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-area-referrerpolicy <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-area-referrerpolicy> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-th-scope <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-th-scope> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-form-autocomplete <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-form-autocomplete> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-input-type <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-input-type> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-input-inputmode <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-input-inputmode> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-button-type <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-button-type> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-textarea-inputmode <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-textarea-inputmode> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-method <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-method> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-enctype <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-enctype> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-formenctype <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-formenctype> - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-formmethod <https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-fs-formmethod> Having a per-standard implementation in the bindings would likely be better than many potentially non-compliant ones. -- Chris Dumez
