If only a select few can implement it, then why call it a standard?
The standard (that is being proposed) in this case is an interface that the actual DRM modules hook into. Anyone can implement the interface.
In this case, the implementation of the DRM hooks are those proprietary DRM modules.
This "standard" shuts everyone except the select few in the dark. Without have the appropriate plug-in, you cannot access the content.
