That's an argument for disabling large GIF autoplay or tying it to the autoplay setting, not for removing the autoplay setting entirely! Though I guess in the extreme case a webpage could have a huge grid of 1x1px divs that change colo

Yep. HTML is a huge surface, so just blocking "interesting" tags / attributes is fragile at best (Similar to misguided attempts to block SQL injection through string validation instead of cutting off the root cause). The othe

Acid3 is 12 years old. Of course a lot of it still applies today, but I suspect it's more flashy than useful for browser developers. Web Platform Tests are where it's at if you're developing a browser and want a test-suite.
