Not really.  People abuse the term HTML5.  Good example: WebSockets,
WebDatabase, LocalStorage, Workers, and many of the other APIs we associate
with HTML5 are not in that spec.

Anyhow, apparently this was discussed very recently and I somehow missed the
discussion:
http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2009-September/023084.html

I'll try to take a look at the thread some time soon.  Ben and/or other UI
guys, maybe you should too.  Now is the time to make noise if we think this
is a bad API.
