    W3C has to start implementing UX guidelines for interactive elements (e.g., form elements, validation, possible lightbox behaviour, etc.)

        @aral Suspect they'd be more open to the idea if UX designers went to them with a doc in hand - github perhaps? I'd be willing to help out

        @aral That's an intriguing idea. You planning on doing a blog post on it or just putting it out there?

        @aral I’d rather all browsers allowed us full control over the UX than ‘hard coding’ today’s best practices. More flexibility.

        @lewisnyman Extensibility hooks for behaviour would be great. I was asking for this re: form validation from the Opera folks years ago :)

        @aral I don’t sometimes it’s good when a UA takes over for emerging form factors. See form actions on iOS and Android.

        @aral Possible lightbox behaviour. I see what you did there and with that I do agree. #W3C

        @fj Was @aral talking about W3C implementing some guidelines, or specifying some? If the latter, terrible plan!

        @aral I cannot imagine how unbelievably painful getting consensus on any of those items would be, in order for them to become guidelines.

        @aral touchy subject. Vendors want to be able to differentiate on these things. Also: IPR.
