del element spec issues
Spec reference: 4.7.2 The del element
Issues recorded on WHATWG Wiki: http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Del_element
datetime should take date
- problem: datetime attribute currently requires explicitly specifying date and time, web authors (e.g. hand-authoring) may not have precise time and would find it easier to just specify the date.
<del>and<ins>datetimeattribute should allow YYYY-MM-DD in addition to full ISO8601 datetime.- easier for hand-authoring
- no need to force authors to enter artificial precision (e.g. YYYY-MM-DDT00:00:00Z instead of YYYY-MM-DD)
new timeref attribute
Summary: introduce a new 'timeref' attribute for both ins and del elements that can be used to reference a <time> element by id that itself has the date (and optionally time) of when the inserts/deletions occurred.
