This attempts to capture the best practice discussed in whatwg/html#11102 (comment).

Review appreciated from @zcorpan @mfreed7 @annevk.

My intent here is to capture this in a useful place, while making it less "binding" than the rest of the working mode.

Thanks!


EXAMPLE: [Escape "<" and ">" when serializing attribute values](https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/6362) was merged once it became clear that all implementations were moving toward shipping, even before the change had reached any implementation's stable channel.

* If multiple implementers are supportive of the change, but only a single implementation is taking the lead by shipping it, then it's best to wait until there's a deployed implementation that's seen significant user testing before merging into the standard.
