I think that is a particularly cowardly approach. 99% of the proposed spec is not implemented in IE. Has no plans to be implemented in IE even. To say, "Oh, but we'll look ineffectual if we don't have at least one thing that works in IE" is to say that you'd much rather appear to be a useful spec than to actually be a useful spec. Something that sucks this bad has no place being encouraged. If the spec had been sane from the start, Firefox and Safari would probably already implement the sane version.
