I know about the Safari captcha system (the only one of those that's truly analogous to WEI). Nobody cared about it because Safari's market share is very small. I would care if those companies jumped on the Google proposal because Google has the market share to force this through and make it ubiquitous, which is why I was wondering whether those companies had come out in support of this specific proposal. If they had/will, that would make WEI totally inevitable.


I imagine we'll seem them "come out in support" by quietly deploying the feature in their browsers.


Apparently the proposal is working its way through the W3C, so they'll have to take official and public positions on it eventually.


Interesting, I'll have to follow that.
