I think we need to have a way to signal that we are not going to
implement a specific feature in addition to those categories (without
delving into the specific example here, but yes this is one of those
features.)  That sends a useful signal to other browser vendors and web
developers.  I know that for us, it would be hugely helpful to know if
vendor X is actively planning to not implement a certain feature when
weighing the pros and cons of working on something.  I can imagine the
same would be useful for other vendors, and it would be nice if we did
that.

I agree, but I think we should have a wording that says something like "opposed to implementation" or similar and not "we will not implement", as we have seen in the past that things we didn't want to be implemented (that way) did actually pick up steam elsewhere and we ended up still implementing it - both for things that are not in line with our philosophy of the web, like EME, and for things where we had competing proposals (which we thought were the better way to go), like WebAudio.
