I completely understand and sympathise with this sentiment, as I'm sure many others will.
It's one things to want standards, but when it's still an emerging field, with so much different functionality, it's an impossible task.
Any poster who advocates standardization at this stage would probably be wise in reading about the early computing days, when you had so many different standards, before it crystallized behind IBM MS-DOS. Or even HTML, where would we be today if MS had listened to "standards" and not released XMLHttpRequest/MSXML library.
No ajax, no modern web.
This is a perfectly normal, and perhaps desired, period of experimentation where standards will just hold the industry back.
