Breakdown of Screen properties is confusing

domenic commented 4 years ago

https://github.com/spark008/screen-enumeration/blob/master/EXPLAINER.md#proposal has three groups of properties:

// Standardized properties in the Screen interface.

// Unstandardized properties in the Screen interface.

// NEW: Currently exposed as Window.devicePixelRatio.

// NEW: Properties currently not Web-exposed.

I'm having a hard time understanding what these each mean. Here is my best guess:

Properties already existing in some spec
Properties which are shipped in some (many? all?) browsers but do not exist in any spec
A new property proposed by this proposal
New properties proposed by this proposal

Are these guesses accurate? If so, does the scope of this proposal include standardizing the shipped-but-not-standardized properties? Could the comments be updated to be more explicit?

Thanks for the feedback! Your guesses are totally right, I'll attempt to clarify the breakdown and intention to standardize some shipped-but-not-standardized and entirely-new properties.

I refined the breakdown of screen properties within the explainer in a recent change, which should satisfy the main request of this issue. Please reopen this or file another issue if you have further feedback, thanks!
