What Do You Need That HTML5 Doesn’t Have?

I’m preparing to speak about HTML5 at TechKnowledge and Learning Solutions soon, and so I’ve been reviewing some of the things being written about HTML5 in both the elearning and web development world. One of the criticisms of HTML5 in both worlds continues to be that it doesn’t have all the capability of Flash. This is true.

However, it’s also true (according to the eLearning Guild’s annual reports, anyway) that most of the elearning development world uses rapid development tools, and those don’t have all the capabilities of Flash either. So my open question to developers and designers is:

What do you need for your course development that HTML5 doesn’t provide?

Or, alternately, What do you need for your course development that you’re not sure HTML5 provides? If you ask a question along those lines, I will do my best to answer it here.
