Not really, I think the most 'featureful' browser should be used as the
standard. Which would definitely have to be the excellent violaWWW. It is
real close to 100% HTML+ conformance (as is emacs-w3, but in diff areas).

Of course, from the teasing gifs, it looks like Dave Raggett's browser
will blow the doors off both :)
