      I also think it’s pretty fair to say that a toast notification is the least exciting and least useful element you could add natively to the browser. We need native components for tabs, accordions, and drop-down menus. We need a modal element that’s actually accessible.

      Part of building for this platform means that sometimes you’re going to get it wrong and people are going to criticize you for it.

      As I’ve told you before, it regularly feels like Google does whatever Google thinks is best for Google rather than what people or the web actually need.

      I’m equally critical of how Firefox lags on JavaScript features. And you know what their developers do? They ask questions, and then implement features people want.

      If you can't see why what you personally want does not excuse the vitriol leveled at those bringing proposals, we're done here.

      I’m not on the receiving end of the complaints, but knowing the web, I’m certain some people are complete assholes about it. That doesn’t mean “the old guard is holding HTML back.”

      And I don’t think I ever said that kind of behavior is ok. You’re projecting and discussing this in bad faith.

      Bad faith? I'm only saying I won't say "that's worth your time" the next time a team suggests working in this area. This specific proposal could have failed for a dozen reasons, but disengenuous arguments by standards insiders? Nooooope. Not doing that again.

          Not... engaging in the standards process? Maybe I missed something?

          If that’s your take away here, it seems like maybe you missed the point. The solution isn’t to pack up the toys and go home, it’s to approach the process from a more open and collaborative standpoint. It’ll certainly take more time than showing up with the lion’s share of...

          The work done, but the hope is that it gets vetted out enmass so the best ideas rise to the top.
