don't think WYSIWIG is a workable conceptual model for HTML authoring

hope the inclusion of textarea format expectations will lead to the

I say WYSIWYG cause nobody knows what a WYSIWYM editor is (especially
Google users...) but the concept of this editor is a valid XHTML 1.0
Strict source and a semantic edition of the content (Semantic with the
toolbar (XHTML), stylistic with the sidebar (CSS)). But if you're
interested about that, everything is explain on the website.<br>

Why would you need a plugin for <code/> ?

For highlighting code even if it is a "personal" or "private" language.
And the advantage will be that while the browsers will work for the
support of common languages, some independent developers will be able
to create a plug in. A Firefox extension, for example, could be quickly
developped and the code tag with it's new attributes will be quickly
effective.<br>

<pre wrap="">I don't follow this. What's wrong with:

I used bad words to tell you what i mean. In CSS, you'll define a word
emphasis like that : 0.1 em 0.2 em etc..., so, a degree attribute will
be in the same "logic". It can be wrong, but for browser, maybe too a
more simple implementation.
