So that's two browser vendors who are fine with that requirement.

I can't speak for my employer, but I hear that we are a well-known 
browser vendor as well.

Nor can I speak for Apple,  but I know they're a browser vendor as I use 
their browser on some of my personal devices.

Would sure be nice to get closer to 100% agreement from the people who 
actually ship the code in question.
