Description
A fundamental capability missing from the web is the ability to complement
<canvas>with HTML. Adding this capability enables<canvas>surfaces to benefit from features of browsers (text layout, interactivity, accessibility, etc).This was most recently proposed as canvas place element (#403), and a concern raised was around retained-mode canvas. This has been addressed by returning to an immediate-mode API. This comment outlines the major changes, and the explainer (https://github.com/WICG/html-in-canvas) has been updated with all of the details.
