Would this working group be interested in adopting the

might be best in the webapps group. I'd be happy to continue
editing it,
it would just mean a change in the headers, as with Web Storage,
etc (and
would similarly remain in the WHATWG "complete" spec).
Why is this functionality being removed from HTML5?
I would also like to understand: the status of the specification
maturity, in particular, its closeness to being ready for LCWD; and
the spec's implementation status.
Additionally, I don't see a direct connection to any of WebApps'
current deliverables although I'm not familiar with this functionality:

Is the HTML WG not interested in owning this new "subspec"?
