Description

running into this document: http://diveintohtml5.org/forms.html

I started playing with some of the new widgets in my Chromium browser (I wasn't aware that spinbox/sliders are part of HTML5).

What about trying to find someone for a GSoC project, to add a (raw) HTML 5 renderkit? Bernd and I talked about a potential renderkit last time we saw each other, but now there is actually some (raw) support on it inside of some browsers...

Why not introducing an <hx:***> namespace that could contain stuff as the following: -<hx:inputRangeSlider> -<hx:inputColor> -<hx:whatEverNewWidgetIsPartOfHTML5 />

And/or some more functional stuff, like drag-and-drop: -<fx:dragAndDrop...> (could be done as a behavior)

etc.
