The @htmlstandard is getting some amazing work done by @Timothy_Gu (fixing document.open() and thereby drastically simplifying the core architecture) and @zcorpan (defining the rendering of fieldset and legend elements and giving developers control over them). 🎉

I *really* don't like the fact if you do `delete Promise.prototype.then`, even language-level Promise-using primitives (async functions) will be broken for good.

I'm frequently asked by beginners, "Where do I start?" Start with fun, start with curiosity. Cramming knowledge is all well and good, but you'll burn yourself out doing that. The path to success isn't *all* blood and sweat. If it's not fun, you'll either give up or suck at it.

Thanks so much to Donovan for this change and many other recent fixes! This closes out issue #173 (from 2015!) on the @htmlstandard, and makes the definitions of one of the more important types of attributes---enumerated attributes---much clearer. xitter.cf/htmlstandard/status/97…

Editorial: always state invalid value default · whatwg/html@7e941ae

Previously there was a rule that it fell back to the missing value default. This implicit behavior could be confusing, so instead we now state both for every enumerated attribute. Closes #173.
