Notes



gollark: I would probably also drop forms since their functionality is fairly easy to replicate with the scripting capabilities.
gollark: Oh, and in terms of arbitrary preferences, I'd probably make some of the web APIs more functional programming™️ instead of using objects; instead of `URL` objects, you would just have a `parseURL` function returning a table of URL components, and `serializeURL` function... unparsing it.
gollark: Well, also the web is gigantically complicated and there's no hope of dislodging it.
gollark: WebRTC is overcomplicated and no, so an alternative API would... allow you to listen and send on high-numbered TCP/UDP ports, or something? Not sure of the exact implications of that.
gollark: The user agent is stupid and would instead be feature flags.
