WhatWg and HTML 5 <event-source>
From the Ajaxian Blog: HTML 5 vs. XHTML 2:

"Event Sources: <event-source src='/some/path' onevent='process(event)'/>
rather than a lot of JavaScript and iframes.

To specify an event source in an HTML document authors use a new (empty)
element event-source, with an attribute src="" that takes a URI (or IRI) to
open as a stream and, if the data found at that URI is of the appropriate
type, treat as an event source."

Whoa! I expected cool things from WhatWG, but 'event-source' with a URI as
the source? I haven't seen anyone mention that since the KnowNow days...
dang, I hope this really makes it out to the public!
