schrotie@keithamus I'm all for writing valid html, so I'd always prefix custom attributes with data-. This use case can now oftentimes be addressed with standard popover markup. If you need to customize that, I'd do exactly that, if the behavior close enough.

If your use case is more in line with opening an accordion, there's the summary/details markup.

You can customize all that (e.g. with custom built in elements), but try avoiding reinventing the wheel.

@keithamus Sorry, I may have missed the point, that you are discussing a possible standard here, not some framework of your's. In this case, please forgive me for my smartassing about "data-" and possibly other remarks (haven't thought that through).
@schrotie I appreciate the sentiment, I want to just use the platform too! Here's hoping we can make the platform even more usable 😉
