[META-THEME-COLOR] should become some sort of alias of [HTML]?

[domenic]

See https://github.com/whatwg/meta-theme-color

Not sure what the best procedure is here. It seems weird to make it a pure alias since then bibliographies will say things like "[META-THEME-COLOR]. HTML. Living Standard. https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/." Maybe delete it and make everyone fix their breakages?

See also w3c/manifest#431.

I think the right way to proceed would be to add "obsoletedBy": ["HTML"] to the to the META-THEME-COLOR entry.

This let's the tools warn editors appropriately (nudge @tabatkins, @halindrome, @marcoscaceres).

This can be done either in the WHATWG resource file or in the Specref WHATWG ref file. Your pick.

Specref sounds better, since that way we can keep the WHATWG resources file to only contain specs.

I don't handle obsoletes/obsoletedBy yet, but I've added an issue for it.

(Are the two guaranteed to be mirrors of each other?)

No. I'm not checking this data.
