Hi Don,
I thought this was a great idea and I forwarded the link to my team. I got the response that this idea-list might be quite old. I have asked them if they know of any more recent discussion(s) on HTML6, will fw anything they might come up with.

I'm checking out the w3c wiki you linked, Don.
Please explain what "Erik Hennum's noble penchant" is or was.
Thanks,

HTML5 moved their box closer to the DITA topic model than
before, but obviously has lacked a class inheritance or
specialization-capable mechanism for us to hook into
strategically. Hence we have been stuck with designing around
the lack of those architectural placeholders.
While the schedule for something useful in Lightweight DITA may
preclude waiting for a next chance at intersecting with HTML6,
perhaps we can tender a proposal for the bits we need at this
community contribution site:
https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/next
The hope would be that, by DITA 2.0 planning time, we can look
at a possibly closer binding to an all-HTML6 base model (pulling
out Erik Hennum's noble penchant again, since it unifies
architecture with delivery in a nice way).
Thoughts?
