Here’s my proposal for a simple document-oriented web: just like it is, just don’t use JavaScript.

  I don't want to pile on the author, but I agree here. It is worthwhile to explore new ideas and I think I understand what the author was going for, but JS is probably a bad start to propose something like that. That said, it feels like my post was a little cheap, because I don't have a good enough alternative ( and it is unlikely people would want to go back to 90s net ).

  The goal is to enable new clients to be written without requiring herculean efforts.

    Use xhtml with no css.

  a browser extension could help with that (but if the protocol starts hurting revenue for the browsers, the plugins might be banned from the extension marketplace)

    Browser extensions are written in JavaScript. :) Also, as I asked in another thread: Do extensions have access to HTTP headers?
