Yes, the proposal though supports these 2 things specific to details
element:

1. Detecting "open" attribute via "#+attr_html: open".
2. Adding a wrapper <p class="details"> tag around the details portion
following the <summary> tag. Useful if user wants to set CSS rules for
"details .details".

I don't mind adding that to ox-html. Just that the details disclosure
implementation will be /slightly/ incomplete, but still very functional.
