Note that these are precisely the parts of this API that are most
problematic and least likely to get buy-in from other browsers in their
current form.
Yes, I'm aware Firefox on Android ships them. That happened before we
had our current intent process in place and hence without effective API
owner review. I don't believe we have plans to add these attributes on
desktop in their current form in Firefox, for the reasons mentioned
earlier in this thread and in the Firefox intent thread that aimed to
ship them on desktop.
Again, this is mostly an informational thing in terms of what at least
one other vendor is thinking here.
