The "double-speak" of the spec makes it difficult to digest, but if I
understand the intentions correctly, the idea is to now propagate this
pollution of the global namespace to EVERY browser including the merging of ID/NAME attribute values into this global set.

Most browsers have implemented this long ago for compatibility reasons and therefore we have to keep it unfortunately.

Could you explain how the specification is unclear? We certainly do not want "double-speak" in the normative user agent requirements!
