Up to a point Ted. However we’d be missing *a lot* if the focus was just on those configuration and control hooks for web browsers. Suppose OS vendors use DoH/DoC instead of (the equivalent of) libresolv. Then there are all the web-based apps on our smartphones. Can I trust my bank to pick the right trusted DoH/DoC provider? Or will these just use whatever Apple and google decide are the trusted defaults for iOS and Android? For some definition of trust..,

These sorts of meta-issues need to be documented and I think this WG might be the best place to do that.
