I'm okay with "genericDesktop". Perhaps this isn't a concern but I wonder if there is any value in giving any sort of time scale for this, e.g. genericDesktop2010 or genericDesktopHtml4, etc. as I presume in 2020 it'll be (I really hope so) nearly impossible to find an HTML display engine that doesn't display HTML5 markup at which point HTML5 will be considered "generic".
