This proposal is a kind of companion proposal to the number/measurement/quantity tag proposal.

Add an attribute to the time html tag. Possible names:

  1. deriveText
  2. deriveTextFromDateTime
  3. contentFromDateTime

or some other similar name. This would ensure backwards compatibility.

With the presence of such an attribute, we could add all the properties that intl.DateTimeFormat supports, e.g.:

  1. lang (already supported global attribute).
  2. dateStyle
  3. timeStyle
  4. timeZone

etc.

If none of these are provided, maybe just set the text based on toLocaleDateString().

Closing as a duplicate, to discourage future double-posting.
