Fair concern. But we may not want the WG to be overly exclusive at this
early stage as to future implementations. I say that especially since at
least this operator would love to find better and more standardized
methods to do notifications using output from this WG that may fall into a
grey area between a captive portal and semi-captive portal (or however we
choose to label it) - it addition to improving Œclassic¹ captive portals
as defined here.
