New Features Awaiting Implementation Interest

There are features that have been requested, but for which we are lacking implementor interest. Without two or more vendors interested in implementing the feature, they are unlikely to get added to the specs.

Feature	Interest indicated by...						Comments
	Mozilla (Firefox)	Opera	Microsoft (IE)	Apple (Safari)	Google (Chrome)	Others
Cross-origin seamless iframes	Boris Zbarsky				Adam Barth		Pending input on this thread
Canvas: isPointInStroke	Jeff Muizelaar
HTMLCanvasElement.printCallback API	Julian Viereck

Adding defer/async to inline scripts	Jonas Sicking
<meta name="referrer">					Adam Barth
Location.ancestorOrigins					Already implemented		Negative feedback from Tobie Langel
A method to trigger autofill					Elliott Sprehn, Peter Kasting

APIs for 'palpable' content (at the bottom)					Ojan Vofai
Some way to add files to <input type=file>	Jonas Sicking				Nico Weber

<img srcset>: a mechanism to enable adaptive images

<video> currentTime and seek using rational numbers				Jer Noble			Would expose the video's timebase, too, assuming it's constant. See also next line.
video source material metrics (e.g. frame rate for fixed-frame-rate video data)
Exception object as fifth argument to onerror		zcorpan?
Cross-origin workers			Travis Leithead?		Ojan Vafai
Deferring <img> loads until the image is needed
