This is a proposal to allow the user agent to synthesize a map document around the URL to a map document resource. The map document would be distinguishable from an HTML document by its media type (and/or other response metadata).
The behaviour that is sought would be similar to how a user agent behaves when presented with the URL to an image or video resource: it creates an HTML document that points to the image or video (using the <img src> or <video src> element) and renders the resource.
