People effectively profile HTML all the time — there are ‘rolling edges’ of 
what is implemented and used, and what is falling out of use and being removed 
from implementations.

If DRM is not used by content owners, not implemented by browsers, or not 
supported by customers, it will die.  Having a formal spec that differs from 
the w3c one only in that it doesn’t include EME doesn’t seem to change the 
balance at all.
