Replying to @adamretter

It might not need to be complex though. JSX from the syntax plus CSS pattern-matching would be a start. @innovimax @glazou

Replying to @adamretter

I'm assuming there isn't feature-parity. The hard part would be making Selectors powerful enough. @innovimax @glazou

Replying to @glazou

I was discounting that aspect as trivial :-) @adamretter @innovimax

I’m surprised no one has created a semi-standard class or data-* attribute so browsers could have an extension to dismiss them.

Well, it describes relationships. Entire philosophies have thrived on the notion that that’s all you need to capture the universe :)

Replying to @rodneyrehm

But it doesn’t behave like one. Compare accessing .type or .innerHTML with the equivalent markup.

Replying to @rodneyrehm

Open the console and select the keygen-as-select; if you access .type or .innerHTML it will exception.

Replying to @rodneyrehm

If you copy the <select> to another document, even with _moz-type, it will act fully like a select.

Replying to @rodneyrehm

Note that this works in parsing a document, so you can use data:text/html, to work with it.

Replying to @rodneyrehm

Yeah, you can do that to disambiguate. Still, it’s a big WTF :)

Replying to @rodneyrehm

I’ve argue to deprecate keygen in the past, but people wanted to wait for better crypto alternatives. Maybe now would work.
