summary

Better form annotation for expressing identity related interactions was a common theme discussed at the 2011 W3C workshop on Identity in the Browser (#idbrowser).

This is a work-in-progress brainstorm for how to add form annotation for expressing identity to HTML5:

• input type="identity-url"
  • alternately: input type="url" identity
• input type="identity-email"
  • alternately: input type="email" identity
• input type="identity-username"
  • alternately: input type="text" identity
• input type="password" pwtype="sign-in"
• input type="password" pwtype="create"
• input type="password" pwtype="confirm"
• input type="checkbox" rememberme
