@estelle I believe the "Add to BCD" section of the spreadsheet is irrelevant, as BCD scope is automatically sourced from webref, so there's practically no chance that it doesn't cover something in the spec.

[Josh-Cena]

@estelle I'm looking at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lvITVZJM8dx8s_Kee5UNI1hDfPNF0gXQwjPop5xIF5E/edit and I'm wondering if you missed a few.

• HTMLFormElement.rel
• HTMLFormElement.relList
• HTMLInputElement.dirName
• HTMLObjectElement.getSVGDocument()
• HTMLTextAreaElement.dirName

In addition the sheet also lists some deprecated properties, but understood if you want to deprioritize them.

This project was for baseline widely available features.
I have been debating whether to do all form features (first "newly available", then "limited") or all api.HTMLxxx widely available features (39 total) next.

[Josh-Cena]

Ah ok, I didn't see they are baseline low. HTMLObjectElement.getSVGDocument is baseline high though.

[estelle]

object is not a form control.

It is in openwebdocs/project#214 though
