Somewhat along the same lines, it would be nice to see IE support all the 
attributes in HTML 4. The example that comes to mind is LONGDESC, which I 
believe is part of IMG.

I read an article by Joe Clark on accessibility, and apparently there are 
several  cases where the spec has a neat idea, but it's "optional" and 
almost nobody implements it.
