Wait! Isn't this supposed to be part of the WG itself? I'm not in favor 
of popup windows at all, however I think the discussions and arguments 
should go into the WG and I expect some surprising results because of 
it...it might be one of the few WGs which will not end up in an approved 
specification. Voting against the WG is refusing to discuss the problems 
at hand - both that of usability and security (and they don't have to go 
with each other always).
