Do we need to mention failed attempts?

I think it's useful for a few reasons. It shows that we were working on standards, even if they didn't get ratified. It also makes it easier for someone else who would like to see such functionality standardized find the relevant discussions and see the reasons it wasn't approved.

the linked discussion is at least interesting and show there's not silver bullet on proposals. Some will become a feature, some will fail. Still, it's good to know we worked on it and good to learn reasons a proposal might not be approved.
