This seems like a strange combination of proposals:

1) PUT, PATCH, and DELETE methods: Logical and obvious extension, no extra syntax, but easy to get around today by just using POST for everything.

2) Buttons actions without forms: Just syntax nicety to avoid a single form tag, unconsequential and just adds implementation complexity.

3) Partial page replacement: Would completely revolutionize js-free html capabilities, but the draft is unfinished..

It would seem to me that the author should have just made the thrid proposal, and not wrapped it in a project of two much less consequential proposals?
