Thanks for the many thoughtful insights Andreas.  Really useful.

Dick and I will ponder, and recommend everyone do the same.  All feedback always welcome.

To our great advantage: we are not legislating how current browser software engines work, rather defining long-term guidelines that serve author needs.

Further context: coming up soon now is revision to 19775-2 X3D Scene Access Interface (SAI) as well as corresponding updates to each of the corresponding programming-language binding specification for ECMAScript, Java, Python, etc.

So with our "design hats" still on: if there are changes or additions to these APIs that can best support complementary interoperation between X3D and HTML5 across multiple modes, both for browser-based and server-based X3D, then they will be good to consider.

all the best, Don
