Wikibase and Wikidata should have clearly defined browser compatibility goals (JS, CSS, DOM), similar to the one defined for MediaWiki at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Compatibility#Browsers
For combination of Platform/Browser/Version, the support level should be defined as one of the following:
- none/unknown (we don't know, we don't care)
- reading (possibly no editing at all, but everything must be readable)
- basic editing (possibly some parts not editable)
- all parts editable (but maybe not nice)
- full support (do all the shiny things)
